Police Union President Charged With Assault
PARKVILLE, Md. (WJZ) -- The head of the Baltimore County police union now faces an assault and reckless endangerment charge.
The driver of a sedan says he was hit in the face by an intoxicated Cole Weston last week.
In a police report, Weston --who was off-duty at the time-- denied hitting the driver and says he was only trying to stop what he thought was a drug deal outside of his home.
The Harford County State's Attorney's Office handled the investigation. It will also handle the prosecution.
Weston has been in charge of the police union since the mid-90s.
