A 41-year-old man was arrested Friday evening during traffic control for at the Stony Point parade after an altercation with police.
Cameron Truesdale was taken into custody at approximately 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 6, after reportedly becoming upset about being unable to access his residence due to parade-related road closures.
The situation escalated when Truesdale exited his vehicle and began arguing with an officer in the roadway. Authorities reported that he caused a public safety risk by engaging in violent behavior, creating public alarm, and obstructing vehicular traffic. Despite being ordered to leave the roadway, Truesdale allegedly refused to comply.
When officers attempted to arrest him, Truesdale is said to have resisted by flailing his arms and refusing to be handcuffed. After a brief struggle, he was apprehended.
Truesdale was released later that evening with an appearance ticket and is expected to appear in court to address the charges.
