A Kentucky truck driver claims he was accosted by Chattooga County Commissioner Andy Allen on Little Sand Mountain Road on March 3rd and plans to pursue legal action. William Wilson, a cattle hauler, spoke to Chattanooga media about the incident, alleging that Commissioner Allen physically assaulted and threatened him. Wilson and his wife were in Chattooga County to pick up a load of cattle from William Mitchell’s farm. Due to the narrow nature of Little Sand Mountain Road, Wilson stated he had to temporarily block the road to back his truck into the farm. Commissioner Allen, who was also traveling on the road, reportedly took issue with the blockage, leading to the confrontation. Wilson alleges that Allen grabbed his shirt and made threats, nearly pulling him from his truck. The Commissioner’s account alleges that the driver created a dangerous situation. The Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office has called in investigators from neighboring Walker County to ensure impartiality. While the Sheriff’s Office has released one report, the initial report regarding the altercation has yet to be made public. Wilson claims the altercation has left him unable to work due to unspecified injuries. He estimates his typical earnings at $8,000 to $12,000 per week and says that he anticipates being out of work for at least a couple of months. The situation remains under investigation.
