On February 3, 2020 the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office received a report that a wanted person was walking on the railroad tracks in the area of Hwy M in Villa Ridge. The wanted person was identified as Richard J. Kimbrel, a 41-year-old male from Villa Ridge. Deputies confirmed Kimbrel had active Franklin County arrest warrants for a felony Domestic Assault 3rd degree and two misdemeanor property damage charges. Bonds on those warrants totaled $12,000. Deputies responded to the area to attempt to locate the man. They located a man walking on the tracks. When they exited a patrol vehicle and attempted contact, the man dropped a bag and started running from them. The deputies gave chase and eventually subject surrendered, whereupon he was positively identified as the Richard Kimbrel named in the warrants. During the chase a deputy sustained minor injury and damaged equipment during a fall along the tracks. Kimbrel was transported to the Franklin County Adult Detention Facility without further incident. He was not injured during the incident. The deputy did not require medical attention at the time of the incident. Additional charges were filed with the Franklin County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. An additional warrant was issued on Kimbrel for Resisting Arrest. Bond was set at $2,500 cash only. All people are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
