COOKEVILLE, TENN. — (TBI) \u00a0\u2013 Special Agents from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation have obtained indictments for a man accused of firing a weapon at police officers earlier this year.<\/p>\n
On March 8th, at the request of 9th District Attorney General Russell Johnson, TBI Agents began investigating the circumstances of an officer-involved shooting involving the Harriman Police Department. During the course of the investigation, Agents developed information that two officers encountered Nathan Manis during the course of responding to a disturbance call, during which Manis produced a handgun and fired upon the officers. The officers returned fire, striking Manis once.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, the Roane County Grand Jury returned indictments, charging Manis, 26, of Harriman, with two counts of Aggravated Assault and two counts of Reckless Endangerment with a Deadly Weapon. This afternoon, Agents served Manis, who remains in the custody of the Roane County Jail on unrelated charges.<\/p>\n
