A warrant has been filed for the arrest of a homeless Neosho man who allegedly threatened a woman and five children August 16.
The Newton County Prosecuting Attorney's office filed a felony harassment charge Friday against Bart Darren Link (DOB 1961).
According to the probable cause statement, Link threatened "to cut" the woman and the children and after she sent the children away, he threatened to shoot her and reached into the seat of his walker.
Link denied ever threatening the woman or the children, but showed the investigating Newton County Sheriff's Office deputy his knife. No gun was found.
The probable cause statement indicates this was not the first complaint the Sheriff's Office had received about Link.
This office has had multiple calls for service involving inappropriate behavior between Link and children, along with several alcohol-related incidents."
The statement suggested Link needs "mental evaluation along with state intervention for his living conditions."
