CANNELTON, Ind. — Charges against a fire chief who was arrested for assaulting a police officer were dropped this week.
Cannelton Fire Chief Christopher Herzog was arrested in December 2016 for allegedly pushing an officer at the scene of a fire, reported TristateHomepage.com. He was arrested for battery of an officer.
Chief Herzog’s attorney, Todd Corne, said the county prosecutor will not take the case to court. Corne believes Chief Herzog should not have been arrested, and plans to file a motion to expunge his record.
