A McLeansboro man was arrested at the Ford Center in Evansville early Saturday morning, February 21st following a series of altercations and confrontations with police officers.
According to an Evansville Police incident report, officers working off duty at the Ford Center initially encountered 43-year-old Darrell Delong, Jr. during an early altercation in which he was considered the victim. However, later in the evening, Delong Jr. was involved in another disturbance and was escorted out of the arena by officers.
Delong Jr. reportedly returned to the venue and confronted officers regarding an incident involving his 15-year-old son. Police say Delong Jr. made threats to harm an officer in full uniform and advanced toward the officer. He was then taken to the ground and placed in handcuffs.
Delong Jr. was booked into the Vanderburgh County Jail early Saturday morning on charges of disorderly conduct, intimidation, and resisting arrest.
