Fort Lauderdale Mayor’s Ex-Partner Arrested, Accused of Attacking Him: ‘Threw Me to the Ground’
Daniel Curran faces charges of battery and violating a domestic violence injunction after a violent incident with Fort Lauderdale Mayor Dean Trantalis, who is 72 years old.
- On Wednesday, Daniel James Curran, 34, was arrested in Fort Lauderdale and faces battery and violation of a domestic violence injunction after a dispute involving Fort Lauderdale Mayor Dean Trantalis.
- Months of prior incidents set the context: Dean Trantalis, Fort Lauderdale Mayor, secured a domestic violence injunction a few months ago yet allowed Daniel Curran back to seek counseling, and the two had lived together earlier this year, court filings show.
- According to the arrest report from the Fort Lauderdale Police Department, on Saturday Curran pushed the mayor, grabbed his leg, and dragged him about 15 feet, injuring his wrist, left leg, and right knee.
- A judge set Curran's bond at $6,000 and ordered him to have no contact and refrain from possessing firearms, weapons or ammunition, while the Broward State Attorney's Office requested an executive assignment.
- The mayor told the court he tried to reconnect and seek counseling for Curran, saying `I failed at that`, while Jeffrey Delman called the incident `self-inflicted`.
