Kermit Town Council Lays Off Police Officer.
A Kermit police officer who is accused of pulling his gun on five teenagers in Logan County on May 12th was let go at a recent Kermit Town Council Meeting. However it was not due to the alleged incident. Stanley Andrew Messer failed to submit his application to the State Police Academy within the mandatory 90 days after being hired. Messer is charged with four misdemeanors: public intoxication, four counts of brandishing a weapon and obstructing an officer. Messer was placed on administrative leave after he was arrested.
