According to the report by Deputy Steven Scott, he responded to a derby event on Rimmer Road after receiving a call about an assault. P.R. Colwell told Scott that several people had assaulted him. Other witnesses at the scene told Scott that an argument broke out when P.R. Colwell refused to pay anyone who participated in the derby. Video footage showed P.R. Çolwell being grabbed from behind by an individual. P.C. Colwell told Scott that he came to the scene after receiving a call from his father (P.R. Colwell) about people trying to assault him. P.C. Colwell said someone hit him in the head with a board. Other witnesses said P.C. Colwell was threatening everyone with an axe pick. Both Colwells said they wanted to file charges against those who had assaulted them, including Salmon, but refused to give a written statement without the presence of an attorney. Video footage showed a white male with long hair punching P.R. Colwell, and when asked, Salmon said that was someone else. Salmon told Scott that P.C. Colwell hit him twice with the axe pick, and that P.R. Colwell attempted to run over him, his pregnant girlfriend, and a child with a vehicle outside the derby area and then returned with a revolver and threatened to kill him.
