Carson City deputies make weekend arrests for felony battery and multiple DUIs

A 23-year-old man was arrested Saturday for suspicion of felony battery on a protected person and four counts gross misdemeanor battery on a protected person, according to a Carson City Sheriff’s Office booking report.

Following an investigation, suspect Justin Andrew Burruel-Kimball was arrested and booked for the alleged offenses as well as misdemeanor obstructing and resisting.

According to the report, deputies responded 4:15 p.m. to the Mallory Crisis Center for a report of a mental subject, in which the man had battered staff and was throwing chairs and other objects at staff.

Deputies arrived and observed staff consolidated on one side of the nurse station. The deputy then observed a water bottle fly from the side of the nurse station.

A deputy went around the corner and observed the suspect swinging his arms and advancing toward Mallory staff. The deputy saw that the man postured and was about to attack staff as he moved in proximity to them, the report states.

The deputy drew his taser to subdue the man, choosing to do it from a distance to prevent him from moving to attack staff by either hitting them or throwing things at them, the report states.

A sergeant gave the man verbal commands to get to the ground. The suspect ignored the demands and a taser was deployed. The man then locked up and fell to the ground on his side. The man was handcuffed. The man was evaluated by Carson City Fire Department medics, who removed the taser probes from the suspect.

The man was mirandized and advised he wished to speak. He said he had spoke with his psychologist that morning who advised him he was being placed on a 72-hour mental health hold. The man told deputies he did not want to remain at Mallory on hold and so he said he knew he would be “going to jail instead,” according to the report.

He said he then pulled two fire alarms in the building and stated he may have struck some of the staff members and that he threw a chair at them. Deputies got statements from all of the victims. It was learned the suspect also broke several fire alarms as well as the front door of the sally port. Damage estimates were anywhere from $250 to $5,000. The man was taken to the hospital to be medically cleared and then taken to jail. Bail: $30,000.

According to the booking report, at 10:19 a.m. deputies were dispatched to a Koontz Lane address regarding a domestic battery. Deputies made contact with the reporting party and Cartwright. The reporting party advised she was having trouble breathing. Carson City Fire Department medical personnel arrived and evaluated them.

Deputies spoke with the suspect and asked him what happened. The man said he had woken up to go to work and his mother who was staying at the same address. He said she was acting strange and playing Christian music really loud. He said she then threw a cup at him but it did not hit him, instead hitting the wall. He said he did not hit anyone or get physical with anyone, the report states.

After CCFD evaluated the reporting party, deputies spoke with her and learned the following: She said her boyfriend asked her go to the dispensary because he was suffering from anxiety. She said she drove him and returned home shortly after. She said he entered the house before she did and that when she walked in she saw the man’s mother kneeling on the floor with her hands on her face crying. She said she saw Cartwright leave his bedroom, where he came at her, grabbing her hair, picking her up and throwing her outside the house, locking her out. She said she tried to stop him but he had pushed her off him, throwing her to the ground, rolling her ankle, where she fell down.

Deputies observed the ankle, which was swollen and starting to bruise. She denied seeking further medical attention. Deputies photographed the injuries and booked them into evidence. A short time later, the man’s mother returned and began yelling at him, extremely upset and crying.

The deputy attempted to calm her down but she continued and told deputies she was attacked by her son, who suffers from mental health issues. She said he pulled her hair and dragged and pushed her, causing her to hit a metal pole.

Deputies determined the man was the primary aggressor and he was arrested for suspicion of felony elder abuse (his mother) and misdemeanor domestic battery (his girlfriend and his mother.) Bail: $10,000.
