A Syracuse man who was shot by police in July after allegedly attempting to kill another man is in jail again after he tried to run down the same man a second time. Alexander David Jackson, 25, of 11548 N. Ind. 13, Syracuse, was booked into the Kosciusko County Jail at 12:48 a.m. today. His bond was set at $10,250. Jackson is charged with one count of intimidation with a deadly weapon, a level 5 felony; one count of intimidation, a level 6 felony; one count of criminal recklessnesss, a level 6 felony; and invasion of privacy, a class A misdemeanor. On?Sept. 11, Byron Oswald told a Syracuse Police Department officer that he and his wife were southbound on Ind. 13 in Syracuse, when he observed a black Chevy flatbed pickup truck heading north on Ind. 13, according to a probable cause affidavit from the Kosciusko County?Prosecutor’s Office. The driver of the truck, Jackson, allegedly intentionally veered the vehicle into Oswald’s lane of traffic, coming directly toward him. Oswald swerved his vehicle and turned left to avoid a collision. Oswald then turned his vehicle into a side street and headed for the police station to report the incident. The affidavit states Oswald feared for his and his wife’s safety. Oswald reminded police that on July 27, Jackson chased him in his vehicle and shot his vehicle with a firearm and rammed his vehicle two times, causing extreme damage to the vehicle. Jackson then rammed the vehicle of Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department’s deputy Donald McCune. The July incident resulted in McCune shooting Jackson, and Jackson getting arrested on multiple felony counts. After being treated at a hospital for his injuries and his arrest, Jackson bonded out. The charges from July are still pending. Oswald told the Syracuse officer that in August he obtained a protective order against Jackson in Kosciusko County Superior Court III. The order states that Jackson is to refrain from “harassing, annoying, direct or indirect contact” with Oswald. The protective order was served by a KCSD officer on Aug. 1. Kailey Oswald confirmed her husband’s story, according to the affidavit.
