A man accused of attempting to commit murder, assault, resisting arrest, disarming a police officer, false imprisonment, child abuse and harassment will be in court this week.
Twenty-two year old Adam Apodaca, faces these charges after Rocky Ford police were called to a home in the 900 block of Locust Avenue on a domestic violence disturbance call December 23rd, 2024.
An arrest warrant obtained by CNYW states that while responding to the call, Officer Mark Montano was attempting to place Apodaca under arrest when he was knocked to the ground and hit repeatedly.
Officer Montano was taken to the emergency room and treated for a skull fracture and severe facial injuries.
A pre-trial conference is a hearing where all involved, the judge, prosecutor, the District Attorney and defense attorney talk about the details of the case before the trial. This is when they might resolve any outstanding issues and maybe negotiate plea bargains.
Apodaca's pre-trial is set for Thursday, February 6th at 8:30 in District Court in Otero County.
