A man named Brian Nichols has been formally charged following an altercation with deputies in Harris County. The incident occurred last week on the 7400 block of Thicket Trail Drive, prompting a response from Constable Mark Herman's Office on Friday. During the investigation, Nichols reportedly became confrontational and, in a contentious moment, spit in the face of a deputy.

The response to contain the disturbance quickly had to escalate, leading to Nichols' arrest. According to a post by Constable Mark Herman, "Brian Nichols was arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail, charged with Harassment of Public Servant. His bond was set at $10,000.00 out of the 180th District Court." 

The incident has now moved from an on-site disturbance to a matter of the courts, with Nichols awaiting a hearing in 180th District Court.
