Manny

Tina calls in that Manny took the kids. Manny is the biological father, so there isn't much to do. Tina then mentions Manny has a warrant and is most likely at a hotel. I call the hotel, Manny is there. I arrange for another officer to meet me there, DT shows up We knock, Manny's face looks through the window. I motion to the door. Manny opens the door. DT and I get a leg in the door. -Manny you got warrants- his two 4 yr old daughters asleep in the bed. "Ok". DT and I each grab an arm. Manny pulls away and sizes DT and I up. Manny figures the smaller officer will be the best person to go through and tries to go past DT . DT lifts weights, takes martial arts training and teaches defensive tactics. I can't help but smile as the brief struggle ends up with Manny going face first into the wall heater, I have a hold of his arm bent into painful position, while DT is sitting on his back. Manny yells "i am done". The kids are crying and screaming. Manny apologizes to the kids and to use. I don't notice until the end of the day, as I am dressing down I have a large linear bruise up my forearm from the struggle.
