Tuesday morning at approximately 6:00, the Madisonville Police Department responded to a disturbance at the North Main Street McDonald’s restaurant.
According to police, an ambulance was requested at the restaurant when 50-year-old Michael Davis, of Nortonville, began complaining of stomach pains. Davis told medical personnel he had been thrown from a Hopkins County deputy’s cruiser while traveling at 85 mph, according to a report by Surfky.com.
Davis, though, showed no signs of suffering trauma.
Davis then threatened EMS workers, and claimed the deputy who threw him from the cruiser was in possession of a severed head.
Upon police arriving, Davis was taken into custody, and while being processed into the Hopkins County Detention Center, Davis told police he would have a friend cut off the deputy’s head.
Davis was charged with public intoxication (excluding alcohol), terroristic threatening and disorderly conduct.
