Police arrested a Florida man Tuesday after he injured three officers during a scuffle.
Police say about mid-afternoon, they got a call about a man lying in a creek in the 100 block of Richmond Road. Once there, they found 28-year-old Ihab El Mahmoud of Orlando, Florida lying unresponsive in the creek bed.
As the officers approached Mahmoud to see if he was OK, he became violent and began fighting with officers.
Three of the officers sustained minor injuries. Mahmoud also suffered minor injuries, but refused treatment. He was taken to the Bi-State Justice Center on three charges of assault on a public servant.
What is a Muzzi from Florida doing in a creek in Texas, alive?
They followed their LE training perfectly - he was Muslim, so he was treated with the utmost deference.

Nothing fishy.
It is freakin hot here.
Poor slob was just taking a nap in a stream to cool off after drinking a couple beers and the authorities woke him from his slumber.
His defense is he was afraid he was being attacked in his sleep by muggers and fought back only to discover he was getting the better of three police officers.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.
