Witnesses told deputies that Garcia had been making unwanted sexual advances toward a female bartender, identified only by her initials, over the past month. On the night of the incident, Garcia allegedly approached her inside the bar, shoved her with his shoulder, and smacked her on the buttocks without her consent. When confronted, Garcia reportedly told the bartender to “shut up” and continued trying to approach her despite others intervening.

Outside the tavern, Garcia allegedly knocked a cigarette from the hand of another patron, causing him pain, and attempted to provoke a fight. As deputies tried to arrest him, Garcia reportedly refused to cooperate, locking his arms and resisting efforts to handcuff him. After multiple unsuccessful attempts, deputies used a Taser to subdue him.
