(KAIR)--A jury trial has been set for a man accused of attacking a Leavenworth police officer.
The Leavenworth Times reports 36-year-old Anthony Dunkle pleaded not guilty Friday in Leavenworth County District Court to felony counts of battery on a law enforcement officer, making a criminal threat and interference with law enforcement along with misdemeanor counts of criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct.
A jury trial was set for March 2nd.
The charges stem from an April 16 incident in downtown Leavenworth.
Police say Dunkle allegedly walked in front of a patrol officer’s vehicle. He then allegedly walked up to the officer’s driver-side window, which was rolled down, and began punching the officer.
During the altercation, Dunkle reportedly made comments about previously being arrested by the same officer.
