GEORGE LEEDS FACES CHARGES FOR RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT AND POLICE IMPERSONATION IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY COURT
George Matthew Leeds is scheduled to appear in the Cumberland County Circuit Court on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, for a deadline hearing regarding charges of reckless endangerment and impersonating a law enforcement officer.
The charges stem from an alleged January 21, 2026, incident that led a Cumberland County grand jury to return a true bill of indictment on August 4, 2026. Court documents outline the following allegations against Leeds:
-
Reckless Endangerment: A Class E felony charge for allegedly placing others in imminent danger of death or serious injury by striking a trailer with a deadly weapon involved.
-
Criminal Impersonation: A Class A misdemeanor charge for allegedly pretending to be a law enforcement officer with the intent to defraud or cause injury.
Leeds is being represented by defense attorney Jeff Vires, and his bond is currently set at $42,000. Multiple personnel from the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office are listed as state witnesses for the upcoming proceedings.
Note: Criminal charges are accusations only. The defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
