The case against former Gibson Co. clerk James Morrow has been dismissed.
The trial was held in Vanderburgh County with Pike County prosecutors.
As reported earlier this month, there was a mistrial.
Prosecutors say they filed the motion to dismiss because the judge told them the jury found Morrow not guilty on counts two and three.
They were hung on the first count, which was pointing a firearm.
The second two recklessness charges were concerning the safety of children that were in a car at the scene.
They say their main goal was to get justice for those children.
Since the jury found him not guilty on those charges, they ultimately decided to dismiss.
Morrow was accused of walking out of Sam’s Food Mart in Gibson County in April 2019 and pointing a gun at a man after an argument.
According to police, cell phone video confirms Morrow was the aggressor and witnesses claimed he smelled like alcohol.
