MAN ACCUSED OF TAMPERING WITH FOOD

(Richmond, IN)--A man who was wanted on an unusual charge has turned himself in at the Wayne County Jail.  39-year-old Johnny Martin of Williamsburg was wanted for malicious mischief with food – human blood, body fluid, fecal waste in food and a host of other charges.  Martin’s arrest record includes an incident in 2014 in which he allegedly injected a 15-year-old girl with heroin and then sexually assaulted her.  That case was ultimately dropped.  Two years ago, he tried to disarm a Hagerstown officer.  Details of what led to the new charges have not yet been made available.
