Tokman kicked or struck three of the deputies, lacerating the arm of one of them, investigators said.

He was taken to a hospital to be evaluated and will be booked into the Volusia County Branch Jail on charges of burglary, battery on a law enforcement officer, criminal mischief and resisting arrest with violence.
