Danville Police have made three arrests in a Boyle County assault case.
Police have arrested Meagan R. Whitley, 22, of Danville, Darryl K. Whitley, 25, of Danville and Desmond A. Brock, 25, of Danville. All are charged with Assault in the 2nd degree. Meagan R. Whitley is also charged with contempt of court.
The arrests stem from an incident that happened on June 16. Police say the three suspects attempted to run over Hugh Parker, 30, with their vehicle. After crashing the car into a fence, the three allegedly jumped out of the vehicle and began assaulting Parker with hammers.
Danville police received an anonymous tip regarding the whereabouts of the three suspects. During their search of the address, they immediately located Meagan Whitley. The other two suspects escaped from an upstairs window. They were quickly aprehended by officers without incident. The three suspects are currently lodged in the Boyle County Detention Center.
