26-year old Joshua Nincehelser of Dawson was arrested on charges of first degree sexual assault, incest and child abuse.

In June of 2014, while on patrol as a Richardson County Deputy Sheriff, Nincehelser shot himself in the arm, and fired shots into his patrol unit, but reported being shot by a motorist when he stopped to see if the man needed assistance.
If convicted of these new charges Nincehelser could be sentenced to life in prison.
