NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – The Antioch man shot at the U.S. Capitol Monday after waving what turned out to be a pellet gun was arrested in the early 2000s after he allegedly wrote inappropriate letters to an underage girl.
Larry Dawson, 66, was the girl’s school bus driver in Williamson County at the time. He’s accused of sending her a few letters, referring to him as the prophet of God and saying she was chosen to be his wife and bear his baby.
