Arrest Warrant Issued For Man Accused Of Assaulting Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff In Face Mask Dispute


SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) – An arrest warrant has been issued as the search continues for the man who assaulted Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff during a dispute over a mask requirement at a home improvement store in the city’s Northwest Side.

Wolff was in a checkout line at Lowe’s Home Improvement store on IH 10 near Callaghan Road Wednesday afternoon when he heard a customer arguing with a cashier who told him he should be wearing a face covering.

Bexar County Sheriff’s Deputy Johnny Garcia says Wolff tried to give the man a business card and offered to explain the importance of wearing a mask. Businesses that provide services or goods in San Antonio and Bexar County have been ordered to require customers and employees to wear face coverings.

“At that point, you can see in the video, the subject slaps the judge’s hand, committing assault,” said Garcia.
