TOLEDO, Ohio — A west Toledo man is facing numerous charges after Toledo Police say he struck an officer with his vehicle.
Darryl Eslton Jr., 34, was indicted on March 18 for two counts of felonious assault, failure to comply and grand theft.
On March 7, police responded to his home in the 4000 block of Kingsbury Avenue as he was suffering a mental health episode. A police report states two officers attempted to prevent Elston from leaving in a vehicle, but he sped off and knocked both officers to the ground, causing minor injuries to one.
Elston was involuntarily committed to St. Charles Hospital.
