A mixed martial arts fighter was arrested and charged with 14 counts of first degree terroristic threatening, resisting arrest and operating a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant, Kauai Police said.

LeBeau Lagmay, 26, of Kapaça, was arrested after police saw him “burning rubber” around 3:30 a.m. Friday while leaving a 7-Eleven store in Lïhuçe, police said.
Officers attempted to stop Lagmay, but he continued heading north, leading officers in a pursuit, police said. After entering the Wilcox Community Hospital parking lot, Lagmay finally stopped, police said.
Officers then ordered him out of his vehicle, but officers said he resisted arrest and threatened them. Officers at the scene used a Taser to subdue Lagmay before they were able to arrest him.
Lagmay was being held in in lieu of $147,000 bail, officials said.
