Originally published as a Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office press release –
“On 11-27-2021 at approximately 8:30 P.M. Mendocino County Deputy Sheriff’s were dispatched to a domestic dispute at an apartment complex in the 300 block of Brush Street in Ukiah, California.
Deputies were advised a male and female could be heard yelling and items were being thrown inside of the apartment.
Deputies have responded to this apartment no less than 15 times in the past several months for similar reports.
Upon arrival, Deputies could hear yelling coming from within the apartment.
Through the blinds, Deputies were able to see an adult male subject pointing and yelling at an adult female, and there were items strewn about the apartment.
The female adult, identified as Lateefah Glover, came to the window to speak with Deputies.
Deputies instructed Glover to open the front door in order to perform their investigation (suspected Domestic Violence incident) and she refused. Glover then closed the blinds and continued to refuse to open the front door.
Glover attempted to close the window, however the Deputy was able to hold the window open.
Glover then grabbed a rock that had been sitting on the window sill and raised it in her right hand as if she was going to strike or throw the rock at the Deputy. The rock was approximately the size of a softball.
The Deputy leaned forward to grab her arm holding the rock, and Glover dropped the rock and retreated further into the apartment.
The adult male Glover had been arguing with then emerged from a rear bedroom. Deputies observed the adult male had a scratch and fresh blood on his face. Deputies were able to convince the adult male to open the front door.
As the Deputies entered the apartment, Glover fell to the floor and curled up in the fetal position while tucking her hands under her body. Glover was advised she was under arrest, however she refused to follow any verbal commands.
The Deputies were eventually able to place Glover into handcuffs and under arrest.
The male subject denied any type of physical altercation between himself and Glover.
Glover was ultimately placed under arrest for 69 PC (Resisting or Threatening a Peace Officer) and 417(A)(1) PC (Brandishing a deadly weapon).
Glover was subsequently booked into the Mendocino County Jail where she was to be be held in lieu of $15,000.00 bail.”
