The second-in-command at a west Alabama sheriff’s office has been arrested on criminal charges.
Pickens County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Jonathan Gann was taken into custody Tuesday night. He is charged with second-degree theft of property and tampering with physical evidence. He has been released from jail.
24th Circuit District Attorney Andy Hamlin, Pickens County Sheriff Todd Hall and State Bureau of Investigation Capt. Jason Roberts held a press conference Wednesday morning to announce the charges against Gann.
“This is a sad day for our department,’’ the sheriff said.
