Overview
- Officers working with the Healthy Streets Operation Center reported encountering Tony Phillips around 9:40 a.m. at Cedar and Larkin and arrested him for allegedly violating a stay-away order.
- Judge Sylvia Husing had released Phillips days earlier and wrote that he was the one who was 'violently assaulted,' while also imposing the order barring him from the area.
- Prosecutors have charged Phillips with felony counts tied to the earlier altercation, including resisting an officer and assault on an officer with force likely to cause great bodily injury.
- Phillips pleaded not guilty and is due back in court on April 15, according to the reports.
- Video of the early-March confrontation shows Officer Joel Aguayo shoving Phillips near Mayor Daniel Lurie; Aguayo was injured, and Lurie later said he will continue walking the city and engaging on safety and homelessness.
