The Buchanan County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has filed two misdemeanor counts against a local businessman allegedly involved in a disturbance outside a local bar last month.
Arraignment is scheduled November 16 before Judge Keith Marquart for Kendall Randolph.
(Note: online court records show an arraignment date of November 16. In a news release, Prosecuting Attorney Dwight Scroggins says arraignment is Thursday, October 27 at 9am.)
Mr Randolph faces two counts of assault in the third degree. Both are class A misdemeanors, each count punishable by up to one year behind bars.
In sworn court documents, Detective Frank Till cites witness statements asserting Mr Randolph grabbed the victim by the throat and slammed him against the side of a building. In the second count, the affidavit asserts that Mr Randolph “intentionally drove approximately 6-8 feet toward the victim in an attempt to strike the victim with his vehicle.”
The charges stem from an argument outside the Brown Bear Tavern at 2028 St. Joseph Avenue on the night of September 23. After the argument, police went to Mr Randolph’s home, but were held at bay for hours when he refused to come out. He later surrendered and was taken into custody.
The charges make no mention of a woman who says she was assaulted that night. The victim in the criminal case is described as “him,” and identified only by initials. Those initials were redacted by officials in the Circuit Clerk’s Office.
Earlier this month, the St Joseph woman filed suit against Mr Randolph, claiming that he pointed a firearm at her and threatened to shoot her. This criminal case makes no mention of a firearm. The plaintiff Heidi Morrow also claims the defendant drove his vehicle onto the sidewalk and toward her and a crowd of people standing there. A trial-setting conference is scheduled January 6 in the civil suit. (click here)
