Herman Russell, 17 of Cedartown, was arrested this week after reports said he attacked a 15 year-old juvenile male.
Police were dispatched to Murphy Harpst in response to an assault on a juvenile. Upon arrival, staff informed officers that Russell had jumped the juvenile and punched him multiple times.
Russell told police that the juvenile had been “trash talking” and that he finally had enough of it.
The victim had to be transported to Polk Medical Center by EMS for treatment with complaints of difficulty breathing stemming from the altercation.
Russell is charged with simple battery.
