Officers tried to arrest Gaddis after he was found to have two outstanding warrants but he resisted and threw the cat in face of one of the officers.
Reports say the attack left the officer with several cuts on his right hand. Gaddis was also scratched several times by the cat.
According to WSMV, reports say that Gaddis kicked the officer multiple times in the leg.
Gaddis was eventually detained and taken to the hospital to be treated for the several cuts.
