A Warsaw man was arrested Friday morning after a woman alleged he bit her thumb off, though the woman sought no medical care. According to Warsaw Police Department Lt. Kip Shuter, a male subject – identified as Jonathan Tyler Mallery, 25, of 340 E. Levi Lee Road, Warsaw – and the woman were believed to have been smoking a synthetic cannabinoid when they began arguing and Mallery bit her thumb. An incident report stated officers responded Friday morning to 404 N. Parker St., Warsaw, and found Mallery standing in the middle of the southbound lane of Parker Street and was ignoring officer commands. Mallery allegedly ran from officers and stopped before kicking an officer in the arm and upper thigh. Mallery was subdued by a K-9 officer and taken into custody. He was arrested on a warrant in a civil matter and charged with two counts of resisting law enforcement and booked into the Kosciusko County Jail at 5:37 a.m. Friday. Mallery was held on a $2,000 bond.
