The Adair County Sheriff’s Office reports one arrest occurred last week. On June 1st at around 10:40-p.m., 64-year old Richard Curtis Johnson, of Greenfield, was taken into custody on a Class-C Felony charge of Burglary in the 2nd Degree, a serious misdemeanor charge of Assault on a Peace Officer, and Interference with Official Acts, a Simple Misdemeanor. Following an initial court appearance, Johnson was released on his own recognizance.

Authorities say Johnson was taken into custody after he allegedly entered an occupied structure in which one person was present. No weapons were used and no bodily injuries took place when Johnson allegedly punched open an apartment door and entered the apartment before removing property. He was charged with Assault on a Peace Officer, after an incident that allegedly took place while Johnson was being questioned about the burglary. And, the Interference charge was the result of Johnson allegedly resisting the commands of an Officer. Authorities say he walked toward an Officer despite command for him to stop, and then pulled away while the Officer was attempting to place Johnson in handcuffs.
