A dad used heroin in a gas station parking lot with his 2-year-old daughter in the backseat, then resisted arrest and had to be subdued with a stun gun, according to a police affidavit. Brenton Sturgill, 37, of Harrison, had two hypodermic needles -- one “still loaded with heroin” -- when he was arrested Saturday at the BP station at 9055 Dry Fork Road, according to the affidavit. Sturgill resisted arrest, leading to a “physical altercation,” according to the arresting officer. He has been charged with using illegal drugs, endangering children and resisting arrest.  He appeared in court Monday morning.
