A domestic situation in Clarinda late Thursday night resulted in a Police Officer being assaulted, and a Clarinda man taken into custody. Police Chief Keith Brothers reports 24-year old Dustin James Danick, of Clarinda, was arrested for allegedly violating a protective order, interference with official acts, and resisting arrest. He was being held without bond in the Page County Jail. Reports have been filed with the Page County Attorney’s Office for review and filing of formal charges.

Chief Brothers says at around 11-p.m. Thursday, his officers responded to a 911 call of an unknown problem-situation at 315 W. Logan St.  Upon arrival, officers encountered an intoxicated female and an intoxicated male who reside at the home together. On initial investigation, officers learned that the male, Dustin Danick, was subject to a no contact order issued by the Page County Magistrate Court. The order prohibited Danick from having contact with the female at the residence.

When officers placed Danick under arrest for violation of the order, the man kicked at officers, striking one officer in the thigh and knee region. The officer did not sustain any injuries that required medical attention. Danick continued to resist the arrest and booking process and eventually was subdued and placed in an isolation cell at the Page County Jail.
