COLUMBIA, Tn— The newly elected constable for Maury County was arrested Friday morning at the courthouse while waiting to be sworn in.

District Attorney Brent Cooper says his office received a complaint last month alleging Robert Medina had falsified his address on the application to run for constable.

The Grand Jury indicted Medina for 2 counts of Tampering with Government Records, a Class A Misdemeanor, and 1 count of Official Misconduct, a Class E Felony.

Medina was taken into custody Friday on a $5,000 bond.
