Officer William Martin has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Martin's attorney P. Micheal Schneider said the officer surrendered to the Tarrant County Jail and was released on bond.

He will be placed on detached duty pending the completion and review of an Internal Affairs investigation, according to the Fort Worth Police Department.

Martin, who has been with the Fort Worth PD for 19 years, was off duty on Sept. 3 when he shot a man who he claimed was trying to ram him with his vehicle after a hit-and-run.
