Aggravated Assault — Wilfredo D. Rivera, 52, of 90 Kay Street, McKenzie, was arrested for aggravated assault after a strange incident at a Hollow Rock residence on May 8.

According to the report by Deputy Michael Sevarns, a female victim told deputies that Rivera had driven onto her property on Fowler Circle and had walked up onto her front porch and started a conversation with her. She said that at one point Rivera got a pair of binoculars out of the trunk of his vehicle and started using them to scan the woods surrounding the property. She said Rivera told her that there were people watching him and indicated that he had a handgun for protection tucked into his waistband. She said Rivera told her that he could hear things from 5,000 miles away and asked her where he could shoot his gun around there. She told deputies that during her conversation with Rivera, she feared for her own safety and the safety of her children.
