Broome County Sheriff’s Deputies went to a residence in Binghamton to arrest Mark Layton, 48, on an outstanding bench warrant for Aggravated Unlicensed Operation.
Layton ran out a back door of the residence and the deputies gave chase.
Within a few minutes, a Deputy deployed his department issued Taser X-26 and dropped Layton to the ground, giving deputies time to take him into custody.
Neither Layton nor the deputies were injured.
The suspect was further charged with Resisting Arrest, Obstructing Governmental Administration, and Escape.
Layton was arraigned in the Town of Union Court and remanded to the Broome County jail in lieu of $1000.00 bail.
