Police were eventually able to gain entry and place both subjects under arrest.
One officer sustained injuries to his hand and was transported to a local hospital for evaluation.
Both defendants are charged with assault in the second degree (a Class D violent felony). Mario Yulan was also charged with criminal obstruction of breathing and criminal mischief in the third degree (a Class E felony). They were arraigned on Aug. 2 in Mineola.
