Two city police officers were hurt in a scuffle with a man who crashed his car Monday evening.

They were treated and released at St. Elizabeth Health Center.

The officers fell down some steps and injured their backs, shoulders and hands.

Lissimore was video-arraigned in Girard Municipal Court this morning. He was being remanded to the Trumbull County Jail in lieu of posting 10 percent of a $10,000 bond.

He is charged with assault on a police officer and resisting arrest.
