Police were called to the scene of the altercation shortly after 1 a.m. on Christmas Eve.

After interviewing several participants and witnesses, police detained Jett, who was found highly intoxicated walking down the street both shirtless and shoeless.

According to court documents, officers initially planned to put the defendent into protective custody until a responsible adult could be found to take charge of him, but during this process he became "volitile and threatening." At that time MPD decided to levy charges against Jett, and while transporting him to police headquarters he made specific and violent threats against the arresting officer. He also repeatedly tried to injure himself by slamming his head into against the interior of the car, said court records.

He was charged with disorderly conduct, two counts of assault and battery, malicious destruction of property over $250 and resisting arrest. He was released into a family member's custody hours later and paid $500 bail.

A pre-trial hearing is set for Monday, Feb. 13.
