BRADENTON CRIMINAL BLOG: A 66-Year-Old Woman Hits Officer In The Face During A Drunken Rampage
In today’s Sarasota Herald Tribune Nancy Goodman is described as having gone on a drunken rampage that resulted in her punching a police officer in the face. The 66-year-old woman was allegedly in her driveway screaming at people when North Port Police were called. When officer Scott Smith approached Goodman she apparently knocked a flashlight from his hand and punched him in the face.
Smith wrote in his arrest report he ‘escorted’ Goodman to the ground where she kicked at the officer. She then refused to walk to the police cruiser so he had to drag her to the car. She was charged with resisting arrest without violence and a felony count of battery on a law enforcement officer. She was taken to Sarasota County jail.
