A disturbance at a Jerome Township restaurant has led to an indictment against a New York man.
The Union County Grand Jury has indicted Brandon Hairston, 38, of Rochester, New York, charging him with one count each of receiving stolen property, obstruction of official business and failure to disclose personal information.
According to court documents, on Jan. 15, deputies were at a fast food restaurant in Jerome Township on a call of a man causing a disturbance. While there, the deputies received a call about an abandoned Chevy Trailblazer. Investigators determined the vehicle was stolen out of North Carolina.
