Overview

• Prosecutors charged Montero Lamar Hill with three counts of battery with injury on a police officer and one count of resisting an executive officer.
• Hill entered a not guilty plea at his arraignment in Van Nuys after an incident last week on Ventura Boulevard in Studio City.
• Police say officers encountered him walking naked before he allegedly charged at them, and he was taken to a hospital for evaluation of a possible overdose before booking.
• The court imposed conditions including Narcotics Anonymous meetings or enrollment in an outpatient program as part of his bail package.
• Hill’s attorney told the court he was not using illegal drugs and described the episode as an aberration, while the case now moves into the pretrial phase.
