(KMZA)--A Kelly father and son have been charged in connection with a domestic incident earlier this month involving a weapon.
Nemaha County Attorney Brad Lippert said a complaint has been filed in Nemaha County District Court charging 57-year-old Robert Thorne with aggravated assault.
Lippert said the complaint alleges that on July 1, Thorne used a gun to place his 23-year-old son, Steven, in reasonable apprehension of bodily harm.
He said a complaint has also been filed against Steven Thorne charging him with domestic battery in connection with the same incident.
The case was investigated by the Nemaha County Sheriff's Department.
A preliminary hearing for Robert Thorne has been set for Tuesday. Steven Thorne is scheduled for arraignment on August 6.
Both men remain free on bond.
