Riley County District Court granted an Ogden man a bond modification Monday after he entered a plea agreement with Riley County prosecutors.
Ashton Daniel Troughton, 22, pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated assault of law enforcement officers and agreed to take anger management classes. He will also register as a violent offender. In exchange for his plea, attorneys for the state dropped Troughton’s remaining charge of reckless driving.
Police arrested Troughton Dec. 21 for the crimes after he drove his vehicle toward two Riley County Police Department officers who were leaving a call for service at 20949 Tuttle Creek Blvd. He has been held in the Riley County jail since his arrest on a $50,000 bond.
