INDIANAPOLIS - An Indianapolis man upset at a youth football game bit two police officers.

Indianapolis Metro police say 27-year-old Dejuan Wells faces two felony counts each of battery and resisting arrest and misdemeanor counts of trespassing and disorderly conduct after his arrest Saturday on the city's southeast side.

WXIN reported that Wells, a parent of one of the players, was upset by the game-winning touchdown, yelling at the officials who allowed the play.

Police say Wells rushed onto the field yelling profanities and was asked by the football league's commissioner to leave. When he made threats, several off-duty police officers approached him, and Detective Scott Childrens first asked him to leave and then tried to arrest him. Wells bit him on an upper arm, and when Officer Tyneka Poland went to help Childers, Wells bit one of her fingers.

The officer dealing with Wells ordered him to leave or else he would be arrested, WISH reports. Wells then said profane words to the officer and also said, "You can't arrest me" before clenching his fist.

The officers received medical treatment.

Online Marion County Jail information doesn't say if Wells has an attorney.

I bet cops love to hear "You can't arrest me".

With that much anger I wonder if he beats his wife and kids. Maybe a stay in a mental ward would do him good. His mother must be proud.

They need to pull his teeth out so he can't bite again..Yep..There no need to have biten the cops..The only problem I have with cops is this..They need to tell me they are cops..I am blind. I have no idea if he/she a cop or not if I am not told.

This is the very symptom of what happens when fans either at the Pee Wee level or the NFL level get out of hand. This is the very behavior that the NFL should be frightened of now! Footballs fools biting fingers, Football fools shooting guns....sooner or later a fan, or a child, or a player will pay the ultimate price unless our football culture gets a grip!

Sounds like he may miss the next game.

biting? what a girlie thing to do. cops should have tazed him if they couldn't shoot him. the man is an embarrassment to his family, friends and those that even know him to any degree.

McGruff the crime dog says, Take a bite out of crime", not a bite out of the cop!
