Description
KLEINSCHMIDT, Judge The State of Arizona appeals from an order of the Yuma County Superior Court suppressing evidence which
was seized from the defendant when he was arrested for assault. We affirm the order suppressing the evidence because the police
entered a residence to apprehend the defendant without an arrest warrant when there were no exigent circumstances to excuse
the need for a warrant. The arrest was illegal, and the evidence found as a result of it may not be used against the defendant. In June of 1992, the defendant, Steven Gissendaner, and his girlfriend became involved in an argument. The defendant became
upset and began to leave with their baby. His girlfriend ran after him to retrieve the child, and the defendant pushed her
to the ground. As she tried to get up, he kneed her in the mouth, splitting her lip. He gave her the baby and left in his
truck.
