What police in Savannah are calling a violent confrontation between a man and two officers Saturday morning led to all three being treated for injuries.
Angar Derium Williams, 36, of the 1900 block of Cimarron St., was charged with obstruction of a law enforcement officer, possession of marijuana, driving with a suspended license, obstruction of an officer with injury, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, removal of a firearm from a public official and parole violation after he fought with three officers in a neighborhood off Ogeechee Road about 5:30 a.m, said Savannah-Chatham police spokesman Julian Miller.
Two West Chatham Precinct patrol officers had responded to neighborhood complaints of suspicious vehicles near a park on Pate Street. While questioning the occupants of one car they encountered 36-year-old Angar Derium Williams in a second vehicle smelling of marijuana, Miller said. Williams was unable to provide a driver’s license and a struggle began when they asked him to exit the car, Miller said.
Miller said Williams was subdued when other officers responded. He and the two injured officers were taken to hospitals for treatment of minor injuries.
Williams was sentenced to seven years in prison for possession of cocaine in December 2010, and was paroled in February, Miller said.
