Registered offender cuts ankle bracelet, throws microwave, fan at cops

CRESTVIEW, FL – A Crestview man with a felony warrant for failure to register as a sex offender now faces several other charges as well after barricading himself inside an RV when Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office deputies attempted to serve the warrant this morning on Wisteria Avenue. 49-year old David Weiszhaar had cut off his GPS monitoring device, refused to come out, and threatened several times to kill deputies before the OCSO Special Response Team tactically removed him.

Weiszhaar, who had a syringe that tested positive for methamphetamine, threw a microwave and box fan at SRT members when they went in. His additional charges include resisting arrest with violence, threatening a law enforcement officer, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
