The following report is taken from a Sac City Police Department Media release. All people accused of crimes are innocent until proven guilty and the disposition of all cases are subject to change without notice. All allegations contained within the body of the story are those of the police officers involved in the investigation.
On December 22nd, 2009 at approximately 4:10 P.M. the Sac City Police Department was dispatched to 900 Early Street for a report of a male subject who allegedly over dosed on prescription medication in an attempt to commit suicide.
According to the press release, the subject was refusing medical assistance. Officers on scene determined that the allegedly suicidal subject was Jerry Kelding of Sac City. Officers attempted to negotiate with Mr. Kelding in an attempt to get him medical assistance. According to the SCPD report, Kelding approached the responding officers in what they judged to be a threatening manner, and in their opinion he attempted to assault the officers using a large wooden club. A TASER was deployed to stop him from assaulting the officers. The TASER effectively stopped Mr. Kelding and he was safely taken into custody without further incident.
The deployment of the TASER device saved Kelding and the responding officers from receiving any injuries in this incident. After being taken into custody Kelding was transported to Loring Hospital by Sac County Ambulance for medical evaluation. On December 23rd, 2009 Jerry Kelding was released from Loring Hospital and immediately taken into custody and transported to the Sac County Jail.
Kelding was charged with assault on a peace officer while displaying a dangerous weapon, which is a Class “D” Felony and domestic abuse assault which is a simple misdemeanor. He was booked into the Sac County Jail with no bond. Assisting the Sac City Police Department was the Sac County Sheriff’s Office and the Sac County Ambulance.
