Fargo, Cass County<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A Fargo man faces two felony charges after a struggle with police, court documents say.<\/p>\n

What the police say happened<\/h2>\n

Rudolfo Santiago Reyes, of Fargo, was arrested after officers went to an apartment during a hit-and-run probe. The filing says the case began on January 31. Police were investigating a crash in the 200 block of Broadway in Fargo. The vehicle involved left the scene, court records say.<\/p>\n

Court documents say officers later linked the investigation to a Fargo apartment. An officer knocked and told people inside to come out. Reyes later exited the unit, the documents say.<\/p>\n

The report says Reyes shoved an officer against a wall. A struggle then followed in the hallway. Police tried to take Reyes into custody, the filing says. During the struggle, Reyes is accused of choking the officer.<\/p>\n

More officers arrived to assist, according to court records. One officer used a Taser, but it did not stop him, the report says. Police then used a second Taser cycle. Officers were then able to restrain Reyes, the documents say.<\/p>\n

The documents do not say if Reyes was tied to the crash. The hit-and-run review continued in the filing. Police have not shared a suspect vehicle description.<\/p>\n
