Police Chief Files Criminal Complaint
WEST VIRGINIA....
Cedar Grove Police Chief Johnny Walls, who has been placed on paid leave after being accused of using excessive force against an elderly ATV rider, has filed a criminal complaint in Kanawha County Magistrate Court. The FBI is investigating the conduct of Walls, who is accused of throwing 80 year old Bob McComb face-first into the pavement, causing him to suffer a concussion, scrapes and bruises. Walls, however, alleges McComb is guilty of a one-way violation, fleeing an officer in a vehicle or ATV and obstructing an officer and that he tripped and fell while getting off his vehicle.
