The man who accused an OHP trooper of using excessive force has now been charged with obstructing an officer.
Khristopher Douglas says Trooper Daniel Martin hit him with an OHP issued club on Saturday in Holdenville.
For Trooper Martin, the spotlight is on him again after cell phone video and dash cam video scuffle with a paramedic in May.
FOX23’s Abbie Alford is following this story.
OHP arrested and booked Khristopher Douglas in the Hughes County jail Saturday night for obstruction after a traffic stop in Holdenville.
Douglas says there was a traffic stop in front of the home he was working on and as he was walking inside the home, Trooper Martin, the backing officer, confronted him.
Douglas' attorney says Martin told him to stay back and that’s when Martin attacked his client with his OHP issued club.
While the Holdenville incident is under investigation Trooper Daniel Martin and Tommy Allen are on paid administrative leave.
FOX23 has requested the OHP Uniform Report.
A call to Martin’s attorney who FOX23 has learned is the same attorney representing Martin in the paramedic case has not been returned.
Douglas is scheduled to be back in court on his obstruction charges on October 16th.
