Frederick Robert Abner II, 28, of Chesapeake Beach
On Thursday, February 1, 2018, at approximately 1:00 a.m., Deputy Rzepkowski of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office responded to Abner’s Crab House & Marina in Chesapeake Beach, to assist an off duty deputy working at the establishment.
Rzepkowski made contact with Deputy Kreps, who was working security at the bar. Kreps had Frederick Robert Abner II, 28, of Chesapeake Beach, in custody. According to court documents, Abner, who is employed as a cook at the crab house was intoxicated when he walked behind the bar and grabbed a bottle of liquor. Deputy Kreps took the bottle which caused Abner to become irate. He approached Deputy Kreps, screaming and cursing in his face, therefore, Deputy Kreps placed him under arrest. Deputy Kreps placed him in the patrol car and requested another unit to assist with transport.
When Deputy Rzepkowski arrived on scene to transport Abner, he was still extremely combative, crying and pleading not to be sent to jail. Once in the back of Deputy Rzepkowski’s vehicle, Abner kicked his leg up and made contact with the officer’s vest and chin, then while securing his seatbelt, Abner head butted Deputy Rzepkowski on the left side of his head. While driving to the detention center, Abner continued to make threatening comments to the officer, unsecured his seatbelt, and was standing up moving around in the back seat. Deputy Rzepkowski pulled off on the shoulder of Route 4 to secure Abner in his seat, when Abner jumped out of the vehicle head first, striking Rzepkowski in the face. Rzepkowski got Abner back into the vehicle, where he continued resisting and head butted the officer again.
Abner was taken to the Calvert County Detention Center where a spit hood was placed on him, to prevent him from spitting on deputies and corrections employees.
