Brad Acy Holley (37 years old of Charleston WV) is wanted for Child neglect creating the risk of injury and wanton endangerment. His wife, Kama Holley (33 years old of Charleston WV) is charged with child neglect. Both are wanted in connection with an incident on Ferndale Drive in Mink Shoals earlier today.
Their two year old son was found walking naked in the street. After neighbors called 911 the child was taken inside by Mr. Holley. Between then and when Deputies arrived Mr. Holley was confronted by another neighbor, his father-in-law, who helped them locate another child, this one four years old. Mr. Holley threatened his father-in-law for interfering, and struck his face with a pistol.
Their house was on fire when Deputies arrived. The Fire Marshal’s office is assisting with the investigation into the blaze which injured two firefighters as well as Mr. Holley.
Additional charges may be forthcoming. As is always the case in criminal matters the charges against Mr. and Mrs. Holley are merely accusations. Each is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty. Additional information may be released tomorrow.
