A Franklin man was arrested over the weekend after Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Deputies were called to a disturbance in the 4000 block of West County Road 950 North. Judy Jackson, department spokeswoman, says that deputies were called shortly after 9 p.m. Saturday in reference to an “unruly male.”

Jackson says that when deputies arrived, they saw two men in a physical altercation. One of the men, 22-year-old Seth Hodson, allegedly became aggressive with deputies. After deputies took control of Hodson, he was taken to Columbus Regional Health before being booked in the Bartholomew County Jail on preliminary charges of Battery on a Public Safety Officer, Battery, Disorderly Conduct, Public Intoxication and Resisting Law Enforcement. He has since been released on $23,000 bond.

Jackson says that no deputies were hurt during this incident.
