During the scuffle, one deputy’s badge was knocked off, and another deputy’s bodycam was knocked off of his uniform. They were arrested for several charges including Assault of a Public Servant, and Hindering Apprehension of a Known Felon, both felonies. During the scuffle, Everett Jennings managed to escape from the house.  Hopkins County law enforcement await Everett Jennings to turn himself in on the latest matter.
