Assault arrest

04/10/2023

 On April 8, 2023, Deputies were dispatched to the area of 17125 Highway 26, Jennings, Louisiana, to assist Allen Parish Ambulance Service with a combative subject.

Upon arrival, I observed two medics on the outside of the ambulance.  A male, later identified as Ulysses Sampson Murchison, 42, of 4006 Shirley drive, Jennings, was observed standing in the side door entrance to the ambulance. 

Murchison had been in a car crash and was being transported by Allen Parish ambulance when he became irate and aggressive toward the medical staff.  Deputies removed him from the ambulance and waited for another ambulance to respond.   

Med Express Ambulance Service arrived on scene a short time later and transported Ulysses Murchison to Oschner Jennings American Legion Hospital. Ulysses was evaluated by medical staff and released from the hospital. 

Ulysses was placed under arrest for Assault on Emergency Personnel, Emergence Service Personnel, and Healthcare Personnel. Ulysses was booked into the Jefferson Davis Parish Jail.
