    Feisty 62 year old man. I think the police did not want to rough his behind up because he might have gotten the early morning shakes. Where a 62 year old man get the strength to assault a police officer. That S**t is funny. LMAO.

      If that is Franklyn Malone aka "Body", then the police officer is lucky. Assault is child's play when you consider Mr. Body's history.

    Where a 62 yr old man get all the energy from to fight with police? He must be on Viagra or something. Anyhoo, instead of using his retirement/social security money to enjoy some rum punch under a coconut tree watching the sunset and the ladies passing by. Now he got to use it to pay to keep out a jail. Only winner at this moment is the lucky lawyer who has to defend him. What a ting to tell the King. Man you to old for this nonsense.

      didn't you read and understand that this man got arrested for theft! I am pretty sure it wasn't the police station he stole why they went after him..... it must be something that was reported to them, then in the process he assault the police and resist arrest. sometimes we read without understanding and then say things and make our self look stupid.
