A 31-year-old Sturgis man was taken to the St. Joseph County Jail after he allegedly attacked some Sturgis Police officers Tuesday last week.
Maxwell Vincent Sites faces charges of domestic assault and four counts of assaulting a police officer. He also is wanted on a failure to appear warrant.
Police were called to 1301 Cato Lane about 11:30 p.m. regarding a report of domestic assault.
