Yea, bc #22 .
DETAILS:
On OS/29/2019 at about 0947 houra, i was dispatched to Chevron, 328 Marsh
regarding a aubject whom matched the description of a recent felony theft that
occurred at Chevron on OS/22/19.
I was familiar with the theft as Officer Amaya had briefed me on the case on
OS/23/19 . He showed me the video of the theft, and I immediately recognized
he suspect as S/Gregory BRATT from prior contacts. For further, refer to
Officer Amaya ' s report #190522026
On arrival, Z located S/Gregory BRATT on the east sidewalk of Higuera Street at
Marsh.
I asked S/BRATT about the theft, and he agreed to epeak with me. He was not
detained at this time.
Officer Maga?la arrived to assiet me.
There were numerous backpacks around S/BRATT and a knife was protruding from one
of the backpacks .
For officer safety reasona, Officer Magarla moved the backpacks a few feet away
from S/BRATT. S/BRATT told Officer Maga a, "you can' t search my bags . "
Officer Maga la told him he was not searching Chem and was only moving
them a few feet away.
2 had SLO Dispatch run S/BRATT for warrants and probation terma.
A few seconds later, SLO Dispatch advised he had a local warrant for theft .
San Luis Obispo Police Department
Police Report
Case Number: 190529038
I had SLO Dispatch confirm the warrant, which was confirmed.
S/BRATT was sitting on a 2 feet tall concrete wall with plant brush behind the
wall .
I had him stand and place his hands on top of his head, and he began questioning
why he was being placed under arrest . I informed him he had a local warrant.
I grabbed a hold of both of hie hands with my left hand and used my right hand
to place handcuffs onto his right wrist . As I touched his right wrist, he
violently elbowed me in the stomach with his right elbow causing immediate pain.
I immediately felt his etrength as he easily moved my left hand out his way.
He is 5 ' 8, weighs about 220 pounds, and has a muscular build to him.
i quickly put my left arm around his neck to take him onto the ground. At the
same time, Z used my right hand to call for "CODE 3 Back. " We fell on the brush
of plants and my knees kept hitting the concrete wall . I did not want to
take any chances of him striking me while he was on his feet. My intent wae to
hold him on the ground until other units could arrive to assist me. I could
hear Officer Magana yell, "Give me your hands" several times but S/BRATT ignored
all commands. i was also yelling for him to give us his hands, but he ignored
all commands.
I kept sinking into the plants which made it difficult to hold S/BRATT. He was
trying to bzeak free from my grasp but I never released my grip. Z feared
he would strike me or Officer Magana if Z released my grig. I could not see
what Officer Magana was doing, but I could feel his body weight . My head
was sinking under the brush which made it difficult to see and breath. I was
concerned at [his point because I knew I was at a disadvantage; however, I
never released my hold on S/BRATT.
At no point did Z attempt to choke him or place the carotid hold. My intent
was to hold him down until Officers arrived.
I was able to gain my balance and turn S/BRATT'S body into the plant brush.
I released my hold and quickly placed my hands on the back of his neck and
upper back. I told Officer Magana to handcuff him because I had a solid
hold on S/BRATT. Officer Magana was able to place handcuffs onto his wrists.
S/BRATT began to yell his arm was broken.
Officer Magana immediately called for "Code 3" medics to check S/BRATT'S arm.
we uncuffed him and placed handcuffs onto the front to relieve pain in his arm.
Sergeant Cudworth and Sergeant Booth arrived to aseist .
I began to search a small bag and located a tube with a white crystalline
substance. Based on my training and experience, I recognized this substance to
be methamphetamine. It was a useable amount of inethamphetamine. The
methamphetamine was later photographed and booked as evidence for this case.
S/BRATT wae traneported to Sierra Vista Hospital for treatment .

A short time later, medical staff advised S/BRATT needed surgery to repair his

release S/BRATT for his warrant and to PC 8498 him for the open charges (PC69 &
H&S 11377 (a) .

S/BRATT mentioned he took the signs but left them somewhere and they were taken
by someone else.
Officer Bravo asked S/BRATT to eit down on a brick ledge, and he did. The brick
wall was approximately 2 feet tall . The wall was surrounding a planter area that
had dirt filled into it about half way. The top half of the planter area was
ehrubbery.
S/BRATT was sitting next to several of his bags that were tied together. The one
closest to him was open and I could see it was full of items. I could see the
handle to a knife sticking out of one of the tied bags. I grabbed onto the
handle of the knife and could feel it was readily accessible if it was pulled
on. Z asked S/BRATT if it was a knife, and he told me it was a tool .

S/BRATT if he had any weapons on him. S/BRATT told me no but hesitated and said

pockets and reaching towarde his rear pocket as if he was checking for a knife
or weapon. I told him to keep his hands out of his pockets, and he listened.
Officer Bravo asked dispatch to check S/BRATT for wants and warrants. Dispatch
confirmed S/BRATT had a local miademeanor warrant .
Officer Bravo asked S/BRATT to put his hands on top of his head while he was
seated on brick ledge. S/BRATT began standing up. Officer Hravo grabbed onto him
and told him to remain seated and put his hands on his head. S/BRATT slowly put
his hands on his head and began questioning us.
Due to where S/BRATT was sitting, we were unable to get behind him to remain a
position of advantage to handcuff him. Officer Bravo had S/BRATT etand up with
his hand still on top of his head. S/BRATT began getting agitated and asking us
why he was getting arrested and saying "what the fuck did I do" .
Officer Bravo attempted to pu[ the handcuff on S/BRATT'S right wrist. As soon as
the handcuff was about to be applied to his wriet, S/BRATT turned into Officer
Bravo and it appeared S/BRATT elbowed Officer Bravo. S/BRATT pushed his body
weight back towards me. I felt S/BRATT was trying to engage in a fight with
Officer Bravo and me because he tensed his body, had a rigid muacle tone,
clenched both of his fista while moving towards us.
I grabbed onto S/BRATT'S left arm to try and get an arm bar control hold.
Officer Bravo jumped on S/BRATT'S back and wrapped his arms around S/BRATT'S
shoulder area.
S/BRATT took a few steps with Officer Bravo on his back and I maintained a grip
on S/BRATT'S left arm. S/BRATT'S left arm wae overpowering my control hold. I
was holding hia left arm with both of my hande and S/BRATT was able to overpower
me with juat his left arm.
At this point Z could feel how strong S/BRATT was. S/BRATT was approximately
5 ' 09 and weighed over 200 pounds . S/BRATT wae overpowering both Officer Bravo
and me.
i attempted to take S/BRATT to the ground by doing a leg eweep. S/BRATT tried to
stay etanding, but he slowly went down and landed in the shrubs with Officer
Bravo on his back and me i front of him.
Officer Bravo told S/BRATT to stop multiple times and I requested a "Code 3"
back. S/BRATT tensed up and was pulling his left arm towards his front waistband
while saying "fuck you homies. " I attempted again to put his left hand behind
his back and S/BRETT was overpowering me and still reaching for his waistband.
Based on of my training and experience, I know people can easily conceal
weapons in their waistband and pockets. When Z firet contacted S/BRATT, I saw a
knife in one of his bags and he seemed unsure when I asked him if he had any
knifes or weapons on him. At this time it was unknown if S/BRATT had any weapons
on him because he had not been patted down for weapons.
I punched S/BRATT approximately two times in the area of his left ribcage to get
his arm away from his waistband. S/HRATT put his arm down to block the area I
punched him. I told him to put his arm behind his back, and he remained tense
and continued pulling away from me. S/BRATT pushed me off of him with one hand

and began turning towards me with Officer &ravo still on his back.

S/BRATT'S left arm and was able to get it behind his back and in an arm bar
control hold. I told him to put his hands behind his back while applying more
pressure to his arm slowly in attempt to gain his compliance. S/BRATT continued
