Carney Man Arrested After Allegedly Threatening Workers

A Carney man was recently arrested after police say he pointed a gun at a group of workers removing trees from a property near his home.

Aaron Anthony Joseph, 47, of the 9900 block of Finney Drive was charged with three counts of first-degree assault, felony use of a firearm and a handgun violation.

On July 16, shortly before 5 p.m., police say Joseph found three men removing trees near the property line between his property and a property in the 9900 block of Harford Road.

A police report said that the men were on the property to remove trees in order to prepare the lot for construction.

Joseph allegedly threatened the men with a silver handgun which police later recovered in the bushes.

Joseph was detained at the Baltimore County Detention Center but has since been released on $150,000 bond.
