The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office responded to a suspicious person call Wednesday at the 9800 Block of East Brainerd Road where a suspect had left a suspicious package in a store and left, according to a department news release.
Deputies found the suspect - who appeared to be on an illicit substance - in the 9600 block of East Brainerd Road. Deputies then discovered the suspect had multiple warrants.
When deputies tried to take the suspect into custody, the suspect began to resist arrest and attempted to take a baton from a deputy. Taser was ineffective as was OC spray. Multiple deputies responded and were able to subdue the suspect.
The suspect was taken to a local medical facility for injuries and to evaluate what illicit substance may have been taken.
One Hamilton County Sheriff's deputy is being evaluated for a hand injury.
