A reserve officer with the Iredell County Sheriff's Office is facing charges after reportedly pointing a gun at a tow-truck driver who was repossessing his vehicle.
J.D. Williams - who has also run twice, unsuccessfully, for Statesville's City Council - was served with two criminal summons for misdemeanor charges, including assault with a deadly weapon and false imprisonment, stemming from the Oct. 1 incident, states an article in the Statesville Record & Landmark.
The gun that Williams used was not issued to him by the Iredell County Sheriff's Office, according to the Statesville Police Department, which is investigating, and the ICSO.
ICSO Maj. Marty Byers said the sheriff's office, in fact, has not issued a weapon to Williams in his capacity as a reserve officer.
