Cape Coral Police received a call from the Chilis on Pine Island Road after Scott Bolton, 36, refused to leave or pay his bill that cost $17.54.

Bolton then tried to sneak out without paying his bill.

An Officer went to place Bolton under arrest; however Bolton began to resist and punched the Officer in the face.

The Officer attempted to use his Taser twice, but it was not effective.
