Deputies spotted Tessner on the way to his residence, where he lived with his parents, on a domestic disturbance call. Tessner was reportedly walking down the road with a "Bud Light beer and a Bible in his hand." The deputies noticed a strong odor of alcohol when they spoke with him, and noticed a bag of clothing on the side of the street, which were allegedly his items.

Tessner's parents had reportedly called deputies out to the house shortly before, but they had left after Tessner had calmed down. This time, Tessner allegedly began yelling "You're trying to get me locked up and damn it this is goin' do it."

After deputies asked Tessner to deist they put one handcuff on his wrist. Tessner began yelling racial epithets and names and was placed in the back of the patrol vehicle. As the deputies began talking to his parents, Tessner began kicking the inside of the car and eventually shattered the window.

Another patrol unit with bars in the back was dispatched and Tessner was transported to the Rockdale County Jail, where he was treated for minor injuries, including bleeding from the head.
