(Cuyahoga County) - Parma Police and members of the U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force have arrested a Parma man, who was wanted in connection with an incident that occurred on March 23rd in Parma.
Antonio Boddy, age 26, listing an address in the 9600 block of Pleasant Lake Blvd, was arrested yesterday by Parma Police and U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force in the area of E. 96th Street and Miles Avenue on Cleveland. He was later taken to the Cuyahoga County Jail.
Boddy was arrested on warrants charging him with two counts of felonious assault on police.
On March 23, 2018, Parma detectives were assisting another law enforcement agency with an investigation in the area of Pleasant Lake Apartments.
Boddy, who at the time was wanted on an arrest warrant through the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Office for probation violation, was observed in the area.
When two Parma detectives approached the car and attempted to arrest Boddy, he allegedly jumped into the car being driven by his girlfriend, Chelsea Alexander, who fled from the scene nearly striking both detectives with her car.
Detectives claim Boddy and Alexander fled the area and led Parma Police on a pursuit which was eventually terminated on Interstate 77 in Independence.
Alexander later turned herself in to Parma Police and has been charged in connection with this incident.
