Description
When three police officers responded to a domestic disturbance call involving, they had been told, physical violence, defendant refused to leave his trailer. Because his wife appeared to the officers to have been assaulted, and because if defendant had no explanation they intended to arrest him, the officers entered the trailer. When defendant moved his hand toward a knife on his belt, the officers sought to stop him and a fracas ensued. Defendant was convicted of resisting arrest. On appeal, he contends that the trial court erred in instructing on the elements of the offense and on the permissible use of force to resist excessive police force, in admitting evidence of prior bad acts, in failing to suppress evidence, and in imposing an excessive sentence. Finding no error, we affirm.
