Details on Etienne arrest Friday, August 12 2005
Further details have emerged on the Clifford Etienne situation.
According to the Baton Rouge Advocate, a police affidavit alleges that the 35-year-old former heavyweight contender, wearing a mask, took $1,978 from a check-cashing business at gunpoint, discharging one shot. By chance, when he fled, he ran into several police officers, who gave chase. Etienne tried to escape by stealing a vehicle with two children inside, but was unable to start it.
Etienne then pointed his weapon at police and pulled the trigger, but his gun malfunctioned. Etienne tried to steal another vehicle occupied by two children and their father. When the father resisted, Etienne tried to shoot him, but the gun malfunctioned twice. Etienne tried to drive away with the two children inside, but crashed the vehicle into a large curb where officers took him into custody.
