GEORGETOWN, Ky. (FOX 56) — The Scott County softball team is two wins away from a state championship after stepping up last week with some big-time wins over Bullitt East and Rowan County at John Cropp Stadium. 'Take one hit at a time, one inning at a time, one day at a time, one game,' Head Coach James Wagoner said.

Police say driver twice struck Davenport officer who was directing traffic
A 34-year-old Davenport woman was in custody Saturday after Davenport Police say she twice struck an officer who was helping direct traffic near a Davenport school. Kaniya Williams faces felony charges of assault on persons in certain occupations – use/display of a weapon and interference with official acts – dangerous weapon, according to Scott County Court documents. Scott County Court arrest affidavits show that on Friday, May 30, uniformed officers were working at an awards assembly at Wood Intermediate School, 5701 N. Division St., to direct traffic 'when a disturbance occurred in the middle of Division Street.' After an investigation, police determined Williams was the driver of a white SUV about 11:30 a.m. that day. Officers instructed her that all vehicles must turn north onto Division Street from the parking lot. Williams said 'No' multiple times 'and willfully and intentionally accelerated her vehicle in an attempt to drive around the officer, ignoring commands to go the other direction,' affidavits say. An officer 'stepped in front of the vehicle to prevent her from going the wrong way and in the process was struck by the vehicle.' Williams backed up her SUV a second time and ignored the officer's commands that she was under arrest 'and accelerated toward the officer, again hitting the officer a second time, placing him in fear for his life.' Affidavits say she then left the area. Williams, who was being held on a $1,000 cash-only bond in Scott County Jail, is scheduled for a preliminary hearing at 3 p.m. June 10 in Scott County Court.
