Knox County, TN (WOKI)An intoxicated man who pointed a handgun at his wife and her friend has been convicted of aggravated assault by a jury.
The Knox County District Attorney’s Office says 52 year-old Andrew Graybeal was convicted on multiple charges – aggravated assault, attempted aggravated assault and possession of a firearm while intoxicated – and the case is set for sentencing on June 18 where he faces a sentence from three to ten years.
On March 22, 2024, officers were called to a home on Willow Path Lane after receiving multiple 911 calls. Deputies with the Knox County Sheriff’s Office saw two women in the driveway, with one taking cover behind a vehicle crying, and the other waving officers down.
The women told officers that Graybeal was inside the house armed with a handgun who came to the front door but refused several commands from officers to turn around and put his hands on the wall so officers could pat him down. Graybeal was handcuffed, and officers could see that he was very intoxicated leading to his arrest.
