Brewer is a former coworker of the man who was attacked. The man told officers he believed the assault was related to a previous job, and that some of his coworkers from that job were associated with the Sons of Silence Motorcycle Club.Ī witness saw the assault, police wrote in the charging documents, and a witness also told officers that Brewer paid McCreary $2,000 to make sure the man McCreary assaulted “did not make it to work.” Police were able to review text messages between McCreary and Brewer, who recently became associated with the Sons of Silence, court records state. McCreary shouted “That’s what you get for trying to snitch on work!” as the man ran away, police said. The man threw his phone and headphones at McCreary, and McCreary drew a large knife and started to chase him. When the man turned around, McCreary hit him in the head with a large wrench, court documents said. McCreary introduced himself as “John Bishop” and the two shook hands, investigators wrote in the probable cause affidavit. The man told police that he saw McCreary in the same silver F-150 from earlier in the morning parked about 100 yards away and started to walk toward him. He saw the lugnuts had been removed from the front passenger-side wheel, causing the wheel to fall off. Around 9:30 a.m., the man got in his own pickup truck to leave, but when he put it in gear, he heard a loud noise, charging documents state. He saw the man, later identified as McCreary, get into a silver Ford F-150 pickup. He said about two hours later, the same man knocked again, but he still didn’t answer, court records indicate.
