39-year-old Jemar Lee Semar had an altercation at a Wedgewood Avenue Fairgrounds parking lot with an employee, Robert Wayne Burns, on June 23rd. Semar and Burns told responding officers that they had a dispute over a parking spot. Burns advised officers that he heard a parking attendant call for assistance regarding an aggressive individual, later identified as Semar. Burns responded to the call with two other employees. When the employees approached Semar, he shoved Burns to the ground. This left visible injuries to Burns’ left knee and elbow, which multiple witnesses corroborated. Then, Semar told police he did push him, but only after Burns chest-bumped him. He was then cited for the incident that day. Semar was later booked on the citation of assault on July 15th.
Jerry Lee Semar of Stover Drive in New Albany, IN, was booked on a citation on July 15th, charged with assault.
