Description | Former California Department of Insurance Commissioner Chuck Quackenbush – now working as a sheriff’s deputy in Lee County, Fla. – earlier this week shot and critically injured a man who allegedly resisted arrest, authorities said today.
Quackenbush was trying to handcuff Teodor Buda, 57, Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of battery and domestic violence when a scuffle ensued, said Tony Schall, spokesman for the Lee County Sheriff’s Department. When Buda wrestled away Quackenbush’s Taser and pointed it at him, Quackenbush shot Buda in the abdomen, he said.
Buda, who has a record of resisting arrest and assaulting officers, underwent surgery and was listed in critical condition, authorities said. Quackenbush was treated for minor cuts and bruises. |
