FRISCO - A Dallas police officer turned himself into Collin County authorities today after Frisco police issued a felony warrant for his arrest.
Frisco police charged Larry L. Dyer, 38, with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon by a peace officer.
He is a detective in the auto theft unit at the police department and a pastor at the Praise Fellowship Worship Center in Frisco.
The charge stems from a November incident when Detective Dyer pulled a gun on a man who was repossessing his boat and car.
After the second vehicle was removed, Detective Dyer followed the man and cut him off while driving his personal vehicle, police said. He then walked up to the man with his gun drawn.
He forced the repossession agent out of his truck and onto the ground.
Officer Dyer told Frisco police on Dec. 1 that he thought the boat was being stolen, "so he went after it," according to the arrest warrant affidavit. He also told a detective that his credit union "made a mistake," and that he didn't know about any cross-collateral clause tied to the three loans he had with the credit union.
He was released this morning from the Collin County Detention Center after posting a $10,000 bond.
Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon by a public servant is a first-degree felony. If convicted, Detective Dyer could serve five to 99 years and a fine not to exceed $10,000.
