A Rochester man who reportedly struck an employee at a store at Eastview Mall, punched a sheriff’s deputy in the face, and had to be tasered in order to be taken into custody was let go on pre-trial release following his arraignment at the Ontario County Jail.

After responding to the store, deputies made contact with Timothy Hagan, Junior, who refused to cooperate and to leave. As he was being placed under arrest for trespassing, Hagan allegedly punched a deputy in the head and attempted to take off.

After being tasered, Hagan was charged with assault on a police officer, trespass, obstructing governmental administration, resisting arrest, and harassment.

The deputy suffered a concussion and was treated at Thompson Hospital.
