Man Accused of Knocking Out Cop

A Salamanca man is in jail after knocking a police officer unconscious over the weekend.

27-year-old Carl Kettle was spotted by an officer urinating against the side of a building, and when the officer tried to arrest him he ran away. After police caught up with him, they took him to the police station.

After they took off his handcuffs for processing, Kettle allegedly kicked an officer in the head, sending the officer backward into the bars of a jail cell and knocking him out.

The officer, whose name was not released, was treated at Olean General Hospital, then released.

Kettle was sent to Jail in lieu of $2,500 bail.
