Sheridan Davis had been wanted on two capias charges (failure to appear) when police found her in a home on Ivy Spring Lane Tuesday, Sept. 27, Stafford County Sheriff David Decatur said.

When deputies arrived on scene, Davis refused to leave the bedroom. She was quickly escorted out, but when deputies tried to place her in the back of a patrol vehicle, Davis began resisting.

"Davis would not fully enter the vehicle, attempted to take a deputy’s handcuff keys, and even kicked a deputy," Decatur's office said. 

When Davis was finally placed in a deputy’s vehicle, she pulled out the wiring for one of the vehicle’s cameras. When Davis was brought to Rappahannock Regional Jail, she threatened to spit on deputies before actually doing so.

Davis was charged with two counts of assault and battery on law enforcement, as well as, felony destruction of property. She was also served on her outstanding warrants and was held without bond.
