On Saturday, Dec. 11, the Jasper Police Department (JPD) was dispatched to Sun Stop #349 on US 129 in Jasper, in reference to a man attempting to hit the caller with his semi-truck. According to the JPD report, when Officer Myers arrived on the scene, the victim explained that her ex-partner, Moses Hill, attempted to run her over with a semi after exiting the vehicle.
Prior to exiting the vehicle, the victim stated she asked Hill several times to stop the vehicle, but he denied her request. The victim added that Hill stopped the vehicle multiple times and she attempted to leave; however, whenever she opened the door, he would accelerate. The report states the victim told officers that when Hill came to a complete stop at a stop sign, she exited the vehicle. As she exited, Hill told the victim, “If you leave like this, I will end you.” He then accelerated, causing the victim to fall out of the vehicle, as well as her belongings. She was able to avoid being hit by the semi, however, her belongings were run over.
Hill “actively” resisted arrest for the incident and kicked the arresting officer in the left knee. Hill was transported to the Hamilton County Jail, where he was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, false imprisonment, resisting arrest with violence and battery on a law enforcement officer.
