Man accused of pointing gun at cops charged with assaulting police.
LUDINGTON — Kevin Matthew Wulff, 42, of 6812 W. Decker Rd., Hamlin Township was arraigned earlier this week in 79th District Court on felony charges of assaulting/resisting/obstructing a police officer following an incident on Nov. 9 at his home.
The incident happened shortly before 8:30 p.m. in the 6800 block of West Decker Road after deputies responded to a reported suicidal person call with children present.
“Upon arrival of deputies, the subject allegedly exited the house with a rifle and pointed it at deputies, refusing to lower the gun after several orders to do so,” said Sheriff Kim Cole. “He then went back in the house. The subject eventually exited the house and was taken into custody.”
The charge is punishable by up to two years imprisonment. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Nov. 25, 2020 at 11:15 a.m. Bail was set at 10 percent of $5,000.
