BWC: Man arrested after shooting flare gun at Fla. deputy, taking off his pants

MARION COUNTY, Fla. — A man was arrested after firing a flare gun toward a Marion County sheriff’s deputy and refusing to comply with commands, ClickOrlando.com reported.

The July 8 incident occurred when the deputy had stopped to check on a man when the man fired a flare gun in the direction of the deputy’s patrol vehicle, body-worn camera video shows.

“He just shot a flare gun at me,” the deputy reported on the radio.

Officials said Caldwell walked away and continued to ignore commands to stop. He then removed his pants, threw money at the deputy and displayed other erratic behavior before being subdued with a TASER.

Caldwell was arrested and faces multiple charges, including aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer. No injuries were reported.

The man can be seen putting his hands up in mock surrender as a Berrien County deputy pointed a TASER at him; then he reached into his waistband, pulled out a handgun and fired
