On Sunday, June 18, 2017 at approximately 12:30 a.m. an Ocean City Police sergeant was working in a covert capacity patrolling on foot in the area of 3rd Street and Baltimore Avenue as part of a robbery suppression detail. While investigating a nearby disturbance, the sergeant was confronted by a male who brandished a knife and began approaching the covert officer.
The sergeant immediately identified himself as a police officer, drew his departmental firearm, and began giving commands to the suspect. After ignoring the officer’s commands several times, the suspect finally dropped the knife to the ground but continued to approach the officer. The suspect was then taken into custody by the sergeant with the assistance of additional responding officers.
The suspect was identified as Jordan J. Kuzma, 19, of Baltimore, MD. Kuzma has been charged with first degree assault, second degree assault, possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure, and possession of an assisted opening knife within the Town of Ocean City. Kuzma was seen by a Maryland District Court Commissioner and released after posting $20,000 bond.

Looks like he fell down!
Looks like the perp was the assault victim. Maybe, just maybe, this will end up as a case of excessive force. According to the story, the unwise kid was unarmed. I think his mug shot will not do the officers any favor when it gets to the courtroom (IF it gets to a courtroom). Heck, with the right Baltimore attorney, this kid might just get some $ out of OC for the beating the officers gave him.
Looks like they had a little fun with him. How's that pavement taste kid?
Hey 218, what part of the story did you miss that the perp had a knife on him, then walked towards the officer?? Read the story again and maybe you won't feel inclined to give this twerp ANY $$$$$!!!
Guess they weren't standing in line a day early to get their spot to perform on the boardwalk. So much for POSITIVE thinking!!!!
He's from Baltimore, probably had that look from the hood,,,good job officer!!!
Big Mike
So glad the officer did his job. I for one am sick of these thugs thinking they can do anything they want. That thug needed to be put in his place, which I hope is a long jail term.
Reach much snowflake?
hello....he is a crack head...sores from him doping up dude
Bringing the taste of Baltimore to the eastern shore every day
Wow ....looks like Ocean City is giving Salisbury a run for it's money when it comes to highest crime rate. I'm still betting Salisbury wins.
There are white people living in Baltimore?? News to me!
Well well, he is lucky he was not killed.
He brought a knife to a gun fight. He's lucky he was able to pose for a mugshot.
OMG.....good one
OMG dum dum one. Take a trip around east bmore, brooklyn, curtis bay, highlandtown, the kist goes on.
4:19, if so, he's got really bad aim, LOL! What are you smoking/ shooting?
That's road/ gravel rash if I've ever seen it!
At least that's what people look like after the mess with me.
Unarmed? Did you even read the article? It clearly states he approached the officer with a KNIFE!! Try to follow along.
Nice work OCPD - be safe
