A Virginia sheriff has apologized to a black pastor who was arrested this month after calling 911 for help when a white family allegedly threatened and assaulted him after trying to dump a refrigerator on his property. Shenandoah County Sheriff Timothy Carter said in a statement Friday that he apologized to Pastor Leon K. McCray Sr. of Woodstock, Va., and that prosecutors dropped a charge against McCray for brandishing a licensed handgun in self-defense. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/a-black-pastor-was-arrested-after-he-called-911-for-help-after-an-assault-and-threats-the-sheriff-has-apologized/2020/06/14/a88d04f8-ae4b-11ea-8758-bfd1d045525a_story.html
