According to a prosecutor, Perry was also arrested on March 6 and charged with possession of marijuana. That court date is set for May 19.

Investigators say they were called to a disturbance on Longmeadow court around 5:30 am, where Perry was in a home fighting his brother and three others.

"Officers went in, Perry was in the kitchen staring at the floor mumbling to himself," said Lt. Brian Myers. "He aggressively approached the officer. The officer gave him several commands and had to wrestle with him. Some other officers showed up. He was eventually tazed."

Police say Perry pulled out the barbs from the tazer, and continued to disregard police, before he was finally cuffed and taken to jail.
