Charges against a Bradford man accused of hitting another man with a chain, and later finding out the man wasn’t his intended victim have been bound to McKean County Court.
Court papers say 48-year-old John Wilber Krouse Sr. had a chain-like object wrapped around his hand while hitting the victim, while another man held him down.
He had meant to confront someone he believed was coming to his home with a weapon to retrieve a cell phone. He mistook the victim for the other person.
Krouse remains in McKean County Jail on $2,500 bail.
