He had a mental incident, defense attorney Keith Zollinger said. We made a proposal to resolve it and (the prosecution) accepted.
Simmons, a resident of the 40 Oakwood mobile home park, was arrested in July near the intersection of Howard Avenue and Northland Street. Police said he aimed a pellet gun with a small flag sticking out of the barrel at a passing motorist. He then pulled his truck over and began walking in the roadway.
Officers arrived on scene moments later and told him to drop the gun. Simmons complied. He then told officers I am an American and dropped his pants.Simmons, a resident of the 40 Oakwood mobile home park, was arrested in July near the intersection of Howard Avenue and Northland Street.
