According to the arrest warrant, on September 17 McIntosh entered the home of a woman whom he had been charged with assaulting in a previous incident. The woman said that she was in bed and that when she awoke McIntosh was in bed with her. She then ordered him to leave and the two began arguing. During the incident the woman phoned a friend who contacted central dispatch. A deputy was sent to the scene. McIntosh was in the bathroom upon the officer’s arrival and he was taken into custody for violating an order of protection to keep away from this woman.
