Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush said police responded at 1:41 a.m. Saturday for a report of a felonious assault in the 1300 block of Washtenaw Avenue. Court records show Devon Haywood is facing a felony and two misdemeanor charges for the incident.
Bush said Haywood was angry with the driver for towing his vehicle. While the driver was seated in the tow truck, Haywood picked up a large piece of concrete and threw it at the driver, Bush said. A large dent and scratches to the vehicle were reported.
As the driver pulled away, Haywood picked up another rock and threw it, hitting his vehicle and breaking the rear window, Bush said.
Haywood was arrested when he went to pick up his car from the tow yard, Bush said. The tow truck driver was not injured in the incident.
Court records show Haywood faces a felony count of assault with a dangerous weapon, and misdemeanor charges of refusing fingerprinting and malicious destruction of property worth less than $200.
Sgt. Geoffrey Fox said Haywood bonded out of the Washtenaw County Jail on Saturday. He was turned over to the Canton Township police.
Haywood will return to court for a preliminary exam at 8:30 a.m. July 2, Fox said.
