On 9/24/19, officers of the Johnson City Police Department arrested John March (122 Gilmon McInturff Rd., Unicoi, 40 years old) and charged him with felony reckless endangerment.
On 9/22/19, at approximately 2:30 p.m., officers responded to 4210 N. Roan St, Walgreens, in reference to a road rage incident involving a firearm. Further investigation revealed that March passed a vehicle using the left shoulder on I-26 before pointing a handgun out of the driver’s side window and aiming it at the vehicle. The victims followed March as he exited the interstate onto Boones Creek Rd., where he continued through a red light prior to turning onto a residential street. Once March reached a dead end street, he continued to drive through a yard which led him to Carroll Creek Rd.
On 9/24/19, March turned himself into the Washington County Detention Center, where he is being held in lieu of a $10,000 bond. Arraignment is set for 1:30 p.m. on 9/25/19 in Washington County General Sessions Court.
