Read previewThe man who flung himself over a bench to violently attack a Nevada judge told police officers afterward that he was having a bad day, according to an arrest report obtained by local NBC affiliate KSNV.
In the scuffle, one officer tripped, dislocated his shoulder, and cut his head in an injury that required 25 stitches, KSNV reported, citing the arrest documents.
In those documents, Holthus told officers that a "big, strong and angry" Redden slammed her head into the wall behind her bench, struck her multiple times, and pulled out her hair.
Officers later reported that Redden told them — unprompted — that he had a bad day and had attempted to kill the judge, KSNV reported, citing the arrest report.
Holthus, who returned to work the day after the assault, has ordered Redden to re-appear in court "by any and all means necessary," local CBS affiliate KLAS reported, citing court documents.
