HARRISONVILLE — A Meigs County man was arrested on Thursday on felony warrants and a new menacing threats charge. The suspect, Michael King, also allegedly confessed to numerous other property crimes in the area.
Sheriff Keith Wood reported, in a news release, that on Thursday, May 6, deputies with his office were dispatched to 38300 State Route 684 in Harrisonville after Meigs County 911 received a call from a man stating that his son, Michael King, was allegedly threatening to burn down his residence.
According to a news release, “Deputy Campbell responded to the scene and upon his arrival was informed that the subject had taken off running toward State Route 143 prior to his arrival. Lt. Gilkey, Sgt. King and Sgt. Stewart arrived on the scene also at this time. After a search of the area, Sgt. Stewart located the male bedded down in a large section of brush near an abandoned residence. The subject was advised that he was under arrest and multiple commands were given to the male to show law enforcement his hands and the subject refused. The male’s failure to cooperate resulted in a taser being deployed which ensured cooperation from the subject while deputies took him into custody.”
