Two skateboarders who were videotaped in a scuffle with a police officer in downtown Hot Springs have pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges. Neither was sentenced to jail time. Nineteen-year-old Skylar R. Nalls pleaded no contest Wednesday to violating a city skateboarding ordinance and to misdemeanor charges of fleeing and obstructing government operations.

Police say Nalls attempted to interfere with an officer arrested other youths. He was sentenced to 30 days community service and $85 in fines, plus court costs.

Twenty-one-year-old Matthew Jon McCormack of Hot Springs pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor count of third-degree battery for allegedly striking Hot Springs Community Services officer Kenneth Billingsley.

Billingsley was assisting police officer Joey Williams, who was arresting McCormack. McCormack was fined $210, plus costs, and ordered him to perform 30 days of community service.

A video shot by skateboarders of the June 21st disturbance was posted on YouTube and appeared to show Williams choking one skateboarder and put two others into a headlock. An internal police investigation concluded Williams used the proper amount of force when making his arrests.

Police said they arrested four juveniles involved in the incident.

Skateboarding is banned in most of downtown Hot Springs, as is roller skating, inline skating and bicycle riding on sidewalks.
