Pirate Poachers of the Bay: J P Nelson wasn’t going to go quietly, decided to fight Oyster Police efforts to check his booty

Nelson was angry and refused to comply with multiple orders from the officers, who attempted to handcuff him to keep him in one location. The waterman continued to resist and was sprayed with oleoresin capsicum, or OC, spray. He was taken into custody and driven to the St. Mary’s County Detention Center.
