Elk Grove Police arrested a man who got upset and became uncooperative after learning his car would be towed following a traffic stop last night.
According to police reports, patrol officers stop a vehicle on Highway 99 near Sheldon Road for a vehicle code violation and during the course of the stop smelled marijuana emanating from the car. A licence search led to the discovery that the driver of the car was unlicensed.
Officers also discovered that one of the passengers who was the owner of the car, 19-year-old Samuel Zepeda of Sacramento was on probation. After searching the car, officers advised Zepeda that the car would be towed away.
Upon learning this, the suspect became uncooperative and reportedly started yelling obscenities at an officer. When officers attempted to detain Zepeda, he refused to comply with instructions and started fighting with officers.
After a brief struggle on the side of the freeway, officers were able to take the suspect into custody and transferred him to the county jail.
