STUART — Boxers typically fight in shorts.

Evidently, Norris Allan Tilton does, too.

According to an arrest affidavit, Tilton on July 22 was hootin’ and hollerin’ and upset with a Martin County Sheriff’s deputy, who was conducting a traffic stop by Tilton’s home.

Tilton, of the 1500 block of Northeast Cardinal Avenue, screamed at the deputy “for being in front of his property.”

“If you didn’t have that badge on I would come around this fence and whoop your (buttocks),” Tilton is quoted as saying.

Tilton continued.

Tilton went inside and came back out in about 5 minutes.

Told to return inside, Tilton is accused of swearing at the deputy.

Tilton walked down his driveway, both fists balled, and yelled, “I will kick your (buttocks).”
