CINCINNATI - A woman is charged with allegedly grabbing a Cincinnati police officer's gun and biting his hand while being arrested.
Raven Williams, a 19-year-old from Cheviot, is facing several charges including assault on a police officer and resisting arrest. Both charges are felonies.
Cincinnati police say Sunday afternoon Williams was seen throwing trash around a front yard on Queen City Avenue in Westwood. When they went to arrest her, she allegedly began resisting and kicking. Ultimately she bit the officer's hand, causing him to bleed.
After she allegedly grabbed his gun, she was stunned with a Taser, court records state. It does not appear she ever gained possession of the firearm.
Williams is due in court Monday morning. A motive for her alleged bizarre behavior is not known.
