Two Columbus Police Department officers were kicked by a handcuffed woman they had arrested following a report of a domestic disturbance.
At about 11:15 p.m. Wednesday, officers responded to a disturbance in the 700 block of Wilson Street and observed Columbus residents Clarissa D. Johnson, 36, and Timothy K. Meadows, 39, both of 717 Wilson St., fighting outside a home, said Lt. Matt Harris, Columbus Police Department spokesman.
Officers observed that a window at the residence was broken and a concrete block had been thrown through the windshield of a nearby vehicle, according to officers at the scene, Harris said.
Johnson and Meadows were arrested.

Johnson requested to be taken to Columbus Regional Hospital. After she was seated in a patrol car, she attempted to break out its window, Harris said.
At the hospital, Johnson tried to remove her handcuffs and kicked the two officers, who eventually restrained her, Harris said.
Johnson and Meadows were transported to the Bartholomew County Jail.
Johnson was booked on preliminary charges of disorderly conduct, resisting law enforcement and battery on a law enforcement officer. She is being held on $16,000 bond, jail officials said.
Meadows was booked on a preliminary charge of disorderly conduct, and released on $3,500 bond, jail officials said.
