Two women are under arrest for attacking a police officer outside of Pulse Nightclub Jan. 17.
Police say the women are sisters who were asked to leave Pulse after being involved in a fight. They tried to re-enter, pushing past an officer. According to police, while the officer was arresting one of the women, the other jumped on the officer’s back and scratched and gouged at the officer’s eyes.
The officer used a chemical spray to stop the attack and all three were taken to the hospital, where the officer was treated and released. Police have not released the identities of the two women.
