A mystery penis injury wasn’t the only problem William Davis faced early Sunday morning.
Police arrested William W. Davis, 24, of Gainesville, on charges of domestic battery, resisting arrest with violence and battery on an emergency medical technician.
Authorities responded to potential suspicious activity at 2:40 a.m. Sunday at 3028 Northwest 76th Terrace, according to an Alachua County Sheriff’s Office arrest report.
When an officer began to question Davis, Davis told him someone came to the door earlier and cut his penis with a knife.
While there was no damage to Davis’ clothing, according to the arrest report, the officer did notice an inch-long laceration on the base of Davis’ penis.
Davis refused to tell the officer who injured him.
Davis’ fiancee, Suzanne Sieg, 30, had a dime-sized scrape on her left hand.
She originally told the officer an unidentified man scraped her with a knife, but after more questions Sieg changed her story.
According to the arrest report, Sieg said as she and Davis argued about money issues, Davis pushed her to the ground, which caused her to scrape her hand on a brick step outside the house.
Sieg told the officer she lied because she didn’t want to get Davis into more trouble, since he was already on probation.
Davis was already being strapped onto a stretcher when the officer confronted him about the argument.
According to the arrest report, Davis became enraged when the officer questioned his story and jumped up from the stretcher.
He tried to walk back to his house and pushed the EMT on his way.
The officer tried to handcuff Davis, but Davis resisted.
Once they managed to get Davis back onto the stretcher, he grabbed the EMT by his shirt collar and tried to drag him downward.
Davis was still in custody as of 4 p.m. Monday, and his bond was set at $10,000.
