At the Williamstown Field Days, the Oswego County Sheriff’s Department alleges that William A. Knapp, 29, of 7 Chinook Lane, Altmar, hit a woman with a chair at about 8:25 p.m. Saturday.  Police say he was ordered to leave, but refused.  He was then arrested and police allege he resisted and threatened to kill the officer and burn down his house.

A Town of Williamstown justice released Knapp without bail.

The next day, police leveled more charges.  Deputies allege that during Saturday’s arrest, Knapp pushed a man to the ground and kicked him in the back and pushed a man onto a stroller carrying a 15 month old baby.

Knapp was issued appearance tickets for the new allegations.
