A Grindstone man was charged with aggravated assault after he allegedly fought state troopers who were trying to arrest him for two felony warrants on Sunday.
Trooper Charles Hassenfeldt sustained a neck injury during a struggle with Edger Franklin Yoders II, 26, at 132 Center St. in Redstone Township, according to court paperwork.
Police came into contact with Yoders after they were called to a one-vehicle crash on Church Street in Redstone Township around 11:40 a.m. While they were there, an emergency responder told troopers that Yoders, who was at the crash scene, may have active warrants. After checking, police said they found Yoders was wanted in Fayette and Washington counties on unspecified felony charges.
