Police say a TV weatherman was wounded by a bolt from a crossbow during a break-in at his home by a man he once lived with who has been charged with attempted first-degree murder. The Johnson City newspapers report that police say 53-year-old Gerald D Taylor was arrested in the early morning attack on Rob Williams, a weatherman at a local TV channel. Williams told police he ran from his Johnson City home after the 4 am attack and said Taylor also fired a pistol at him, but missed. Police said they found Taylor at a boat dock near Williams’ house with a pistol in his hand and arrested him. Williams says he and Taylor had been living together until recently, and an order of protection had been served.
