Bryan Kain Pack, 24, was arrested by the sheriff’s department on Aug. 22 for filing a false report and reckless endangerment.

According to Sheriff Patrick Ray, a detective and other members of the sheriff’s department, along with TWRA officers, were performing an investigation into reports that someone was prowling a neighborhood and throwing rocks at vehicles on Aug. 21. The suspect was reportedly throwing rocks at a house and vehicles, breaking windows out of one car, and continued to pelt officers and patrol cars with stones after they arrived on the scene.

Ray said several vehicles were damaged, including a patrol car and an undercover vehicle. Pack allegedly led officers to believe that someone else had thrown the rocks, and gave names of the possible suspects and direction that the rocks were thrown from, knowing that the statements were false, and that he had thrown the rocks. The sheriff said that the false reports put officers in danger of bodily injury by causing them to go into the woods at night on steep terrain looking for someone that Pack knew was not there.

According to the sheriff, Pack eventually admitted to throwing rocks at houses and vehicles because he wanted law enforcement to take the investigation seriously. Pack apparently lived at the address where the incident occurred, and the damaged house and vehicle reportedly belonged to a family member.

His bond was set at $12,000.
