Bond Set For Rock Springs Man Accused of Assaut and Battery

A $20,000 cash or surety bond was set last Friday on 56 year old Brent Lynn Long of Rock Springs who is accused of Aggravated Assault and Battery. Sweetwater County Detective Dick Blust, Jr. says that around 12:30 AM on October 20th, Deputy Sheriff Matt Wharton was on patrol north of Rock Springs when he saw a vehicle with its lights on in the parking lot of Quality Energy Services on Highway 191.






Stevens told officers that Long was standing on the porch and “was holding his hands as if he had a gun.” She said she saw a red light between her eyes, which she believed was from a gun Long owns fitted with a laser, and then saw ‘fire’ coming out of the barrel of the gun.” An investigation showed that Long did own a .45 caliber Kimber semiautomatic pistol fitted with a laser sighting device.






Long was arrested and still remains in custody. Stevens was not injured during the incident.
