The lawyer of Jefferson County, Mike O'Connell, dropped the indictment against the Golf -Ace and said: “Due to the entirety of the evidence, my office cannot advance charges submitted against Mr. Scheffler.

“The evidence that we have checked supports the conclusion that Detective Gillis is concerned for public security on site when he initiated contact with Mr. Scheffler.

“However, the actions of Mr. Scheffler and the evidence of their exchange during this misunderstanding do not meet the elements of crimes.”
