Stewart to wait two weeks: Sullivan County investigators have wrapped up their probe of Tony Stewart, but the NASCAR driver will wait another two weeks to learn if he will be charged with assaulting a fan at Bristol. "The investigation is pretty much finished except to turn it over to (prosecutors)," Sullivan County Sheriff Wayne Anderson said Tuesday. "It will be turned over on Monday." Prosecutors have said the case will be presented to a county grand jury at the end of the month; the grand jury will decide whether to issue an indictment in the case. Meanwhile, Anderson has made public an incident report filed by Deputy Shane Christian -- the officer who said he witnessed the encounter between Stewart and the woman. Christian wrote that he saw the 31-year-old NASCAR driver shove the woman against a race trailer at 11:30 p.m. after the running of the Sharpie 500 on Aug. 24 at Bristol Motor Speedway. He filed the report four days after the alleged incident. "He took his left arm and shoved her out of the way. The female's back struck the Home Deport car hauler and she appeared to trip over either tires or rims that were lying at her feet," Christian wrote. Stewart yelled an obscenity and told the woman to get out of his way, Christian wrote. The deputy said he spoke with Shaffer immediately after the incident and asked if she wanted to charge the driver, according to the report. The woman apparently was unharmed in the incident, authorities have said.(Bristol Herald Courier)(9-11-2002)
Joe Gibbs seems like a very principled owner, I wonder how much more of this he is going to take?
