 July is going to be hotter than ever because you get up to $50 off any smartphone at Appalachian Wireless to your agreement required. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless, an East Kentucky network company. A man originally jailed for failure to pay fines, failure to appear in court, and contempt of court, is now charged with a felony assault charge. But last week, Officer Timothy Carter with the Pye County Detention Center was completing a 20-minute check on inmates in isolation. When arriving at 28-year-old Jeremy Kenny's cell, Officer Carter noticed Kenny was banging his head against the door, harming himself. At that time, Officer Carter decided to go into the cell to prevent him from being able to harm himself anymore by trying to restrain him and call for assistance. That's when the situation escalated into violence. Whenever the door was open, the inmate came out and started swinging at Officer Carter. He ended up knocking him into a wall. Officer Carter hit the back of his head on a wall. At that time, Officer Carter was able to grab hold of him and take him to the ground. In the process of restraining Kenny, Officer Carter broke his hand. Our job is actually quite difficult. It's never the same type of work every single day. You deal with people that their mindset could be different today than it will be tomorrow. And realistically, you can't come to this job and do a routine day in and day out. Carter will be off work for a minimum of eight weeks. Kenny is charged with third degree assault, which is a felony punishable up to five years. Reporting in Pikeville, I'm Shelby Still for EKB News.
