A Council Bluffs man was arrested Tuesday afternoon following a report of a person yelling profanities at passing vehicles in the 2400 block of 9th Avenue. Officers arriving on the scene at around 4-p.m. found 24-year old Colton Benson on the roof of the house. Benson was jumping on and off of the roof. When Officers began to negotiate with Benson, he reportedly jumped down to a porch area in the front of the house.

At that point, officers on scene decided that Benson was in a safe location, and they attempted to taser him while he was on the lower portion of the front porch. As the taser was being deployed, Benson was able to remove the probes, indicating the device had no effect. Benson had also torn off his shirt and coat and continued to be aggressive.

Officers continued to negotiate with the man, and he was finally convinced to come off of the roof at around 4:15-p.m. Benson was taken into custody and transported to a local hospital, where he was treated and released. He was then transported to Pottawattamie County Corrections and charged with Interference with official acts.
