Florida man caught illegally fishing tased 3 times by FWC officer
POHOKEE, Fla. — A Pahokee, Florida, man caught illegally fishing was tased three times Friday night during his arrest by an officer with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission or FWC, according to an arrest report.
Derrick Lee Williams, 31, is facing charges of battery on an officer, violating an FWC rule or order and resisting an officer with violence. He is being held in the Palm Beach County Jail.
It’s the second time this month that Williams has run into problems with the FWC.
Williams was arrested Dec. 14 by the FWC after he allegedly fled while being questioned by an officer about using a cast net to fish off the Highway 441 Bridge in Canal Point. Williams avoided being tased by the officer in that incident after he stopped running and complied with orders, police said. He is facing a charge of resisting arrest without violence.
