On Thursday at approximately 4:07 p.m., the Appomattox County Sheriff's Office (ACSO) was dispatched to the 2000 block of Chestnut Mountain Road for a male that had shot a firearm multiple times at a female in the yard of a residence.
While en route to the complaint, deputies encountered the male suspect driving a black Ford Fusion at the intersection of Stage Road and Stonewall Road. Deputies attempted to stop the vehicle and the driver led deputies on a pursuit into Campbell County. On Bluebird Lane, the driver fled on foot, then barricaded himself inside a nearby residence. After a brief negotiation, the suspect surrendered himself without injury.
Simultaneously during the pursuit, other deputies with the ACSO located the female at a residence on Chestnut Mountain Road with no injuries.
The suspect was identified as Brandon Shane Holton, Jr., of Appomattox County. Holton was charged with the following in Appomattox County:
- Felony larceny of a firearm
- Felony eluding
- Misdemeanor brandishing of a firearm
- Misdemeanor reckless handling of a firearm
- Driving with a suspended license
The Appomattox County Sheriff's Office would like to thank the Campbell County Sheriff's Office and Virginia State Police for their assistance.
Anyone with any information involving this case is asked to contact Lt. Justin Rothgeb at the Appomattox County Sheriff's Office (434-352-2666).
