An Anderson County deputy said he hit a Claxton man with two five-second bursts from a Taser on Wednesday before he was able to handcuff and arrest him.
Anderson County Deputy Jonathan A. Bryant said he was patrolling near Mooncrest Lane and Dunn Lane in Claxton at about 8 p.m. Wednesday when he saw the defendant, Dennis Lee Reynolds, 49, with a female near a van, according to court records and an incident report.
Bryant said the two “dropped down low to the ground” when they saw his police car, the records said. They moved to the passenger side of the van, opposite of the deputy.
