KNOXVILLE – A Knoxville man was arrested over the weekend following an incident in which he allegedly got into an altercation with someone and broke a window at their residence.

According to court records, the Knoxville Police Department received a report of a broken window at a residence in the 1200 block of Gebhardt Street on Saturday, October 11. Officers arrived and spoke with the person who lived at the residence, who told police that 41-year-old Zachary Jones had gotten into a verbal argument with her and left before police arrived. She later told police that Jones had broken the window as he was leaving.

On Sunday, officers located and questioned Jones, who allegedly admitted to attempting to throw a ring in a box at the door of the apartment but missed the door, striking the window and breaking it. Court documents state that it was a double-pane window and that only the exterior pane was broken. Repair costs are estimated to be $750-1500.

Jones was arrested on Sunday and charged with 3rd degree criminal mischief (an aggravated misdemeanor). He was later released after posting a $2,000 surety bond. His preliminary hearing has been scheduled for October 21.
