HAMILTON COUNTY — A preliminary hearing has been set for April 4 in Hamilton County for a man charged with one count of aggravated domestic battery – a Class 2 felony.

Hamilton County State’s Attorney Justin Hood says 32-year-old Charles “Andy” Sage III made his first appearance on March 21 after he waived extradition from Union County, KY. It was there that he was arrested after leaving Hamilton County earlier in March. 

Hood says Sage told the court at his first appearance that he planned on hiring an attorney to represent him.

Sage is also facing several motor vehicle offenses relating to when he fled from police in March.
