A suspect who tried to run over one of our officers Thursday afternoon has turned himself in.
Officers were serving a search warrant at 3421 Harvey Street around 3:15. As one of our undercover officers stood in the front yard, 32 year old Sherman Casby approached driving a bright orange Oldsmobile. The officer identified himself as a KCSO officer and Casby tried to run him down and then pointed a gun at the officer. The officer fired two rounds at the fleeing car. The officer was not injured. The car was found a short time later abandoned at an apartment complex on Cedar Lane with a tire that had been flattened by one round.
Officers searched the house and found narcotics. Casby turned himself in shortly after 6 p.m. He will be charged with aggravated assault on a police officer. He has a lengthy criminal history including violation of probation, failure to obey court orders, DUI, assault, and various drug charges
