Man Punches Officer in the Face During Rampage: Police

A Long Island man punched three people before punching a cop in the face, breaking her nose, police said. Then he resisted arrest, breaking another officer's finger in the struggle. 

Christian Perrone, 20, of Lindenhurst, was charged with assault and resisting arrest, Suffolk County police said. He was scheduled to be arraigned later Saturday. 

Police said he punched two men and a woman late Friday at South Delaware Avenue and Kansas Street in Lindenhurst. 

When police arrived, he punched one of them in the face, breaking her nose, police said. 

He then resisted arrest, breaking the finger of another officer, police said. 

None of the injuries was considered life-threatening. 

It wasn't clear whether Perrone had an attorney.
