Man films neighbour wrestle with police on front lawn during wild arrest

A Perth resident has filmed his neighbour wrestling with police on the front lawn during a wild arrest that escalated after the man uttered seven chilling words.

A man in Perth has filmed the wild moment his neighbour was arrested on the front lawn before being hauled into the back of a police car by four police officers.

Geoff Jackson shared videos on TikTok of the moment unfolding on Friday in the outer Perth suburb of Warnbro.

As two police officers are seen approaching the house, yelling can be heard as a damaged garage door appears to be repeatedly hit from the inside.

The WA Police officers announce their presence and the words “f**k off” are yelled from inside before a man opens the garage door and walks out.

The man is then heard yelling: “What’s going on? I f***ing pay the bills. I pay the f***ing rent. I pay the formula. I pay the nappies. And when I get home I get treated like a ****.”

A second video shows the man wrestling with the officers on the front lawn where he says seven chilling words: “I’ve got a gun in my hand”.

The man appears to hold on to something strapped to the side of one of the officers.

The man eventually surrenders and is put in handcuffs before another two officers approach.

A third video shows neighbours watching on as the four officers struggle to get the man into the back of a police car as he pushes against the vehicle with his legs.

The police officers eventually get him inside and quickly shut the door.

Police confirmed to news.com.au a 37-year-old was charged with disorderly behaviour in a public place and will face court at a later date.
