A man is set to appear in court Monday in Newton, Massachusetts, to face several charges, after allegedly attacking police officers during a domestic violence call Saturday night , although his roommates have disputed the police department's narrative about what happened. The roommates of the suspect said he was actually calm, and said that it was the police who used excessive force. Newton police, meanwhile, said during a news conference Sunday evening that the "the assaultive, out of control suspect" punched officers, one of whom became unconscious for a moment.
