PAWNEE CITY - Garrett DeKoning, 34, of Pawnee City is charged with assault, terroristic threats and criminal trespass on March 21.

An arrest affidavit says DeKoning told a Pawnee County sheriff’s deputy he jumped on a dozer to talk with the operator, but the operator went and got a gun.

The operator told deputies he stopped the dozer to avoid running over DeKoning. He said DeKoning opened the door to the cab, assaulted him and made threats against his life and his family. Garrett denied making threats.

A bond of $100,000 was set in April and a preliminary hearing is scheduled on July 18.
