According to Krauss' report, Borny became irate and started moving toward the officers "yelling about mandatory court appearance associated with the violation."
“I advised Mr. Borny again to move back, grabbed onto him as he continued towards me and moved him back approximately five yards. After advising Mr. Borny again to stay back, he attempted to push me towards [Officer] Gizzi while yelling about the court date. I advised Mr. Borny at that time that he was under arrest and placed him on the ground as he refused to put his hands behind his back. After a brief struggle I was able to secure Mr. Borny," Krauss said in his report.
