But Stockinger is the only one charged in the incident.

It started the evening of July 6, when police were called about a pedestrian struck by a vehicle near the intersection of Highway MM and Katrina Drive.

What they found was a man, 53, on the ground with two broken legs. He told police the driver of a car had pinned him against his van after he got out of it.

The injured man’s wife, 54, who had been following her husband in a different vehicle, told police she had just been whacked in the head by a man with a prosthetic arm after trying to prevent him from leaving.

Police said she, too, had been treated at a hospital.

Stockinger was soon found in his vehicle, arrested and evaluated at a hospital. He was found fit for confinement.

The next day, after being served with multiple warrants, Higginbotham said, Stockinger became “enraged” and beat on the cell. The mechanical arm has since been filed away with Stockinger’s personal property.
