42-year-old Harvey Bush was charged with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest, possession of cocaine with intent, and paraphernalia when he snatched and twisted a detective’s testicles as he was being detained for a business transaction.
On August 5th, crime scene detectives were monitoring the Tiger Market on 2664 Smith Spring Road in Hermitage. According to an affidavit, the detectives witnessed a transaction occur through the window of Harvey Bush’s Mercedes C230. Investigation showed that the owner of the vehicle had two outstanding warrants. When the officers were placing Bush in custody, he attempted to escape, seizing Officer Joseph Patricio by his testicles.

The report also explains that Bush had $302 in small bills on his person and this was determined to be supportive of drug sales.
