Deputies investigating a drug tip in Orlando, FL., were rushed by a 400-pound man, causing one deputy to be hospitalized with a minor puncture wound. The target house has been a "center of attention" because of drug and prostitution activity.

According to the report from the Orlando Sentinel, Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings said three undercover narcotics detectives went to the house about 9:15 a.m. and "things got a little hairy," when they spotted drugs and stacks of cash inside.

The injured deputy, whose identity was not immediately released, does not appear to have been stabbed with any object but may have hit his arm on something as Roby pushed him out of the doorway.

Demings said Roby is "fairly large" — weighing about 400 pounds and standing about six feet tall — and posed a threat to his deputies.

As many as 14 people were at the home during the incident, including eight females. All were released.



"This very well may spiral into something else,'' Demings said, noting deputies were awaiting a search warrant to further investigate what went on inside the home.

The narcotics unit found drug paraphernalia and other evidence, said OCSO spokeswoman Jane Watrel.

Agents from the U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement have opened their own investigation, she said.

When asked if there was human trafficking or a prostitution ring, Demings said he would not speculate, but that it was "awfully suspicious."

"There's no question there's something else going on," Demings said.
