2:59Now PlayingJohn F. Johnson, also known as "Grandmaster Jay," of the Not F*cking Around Coalition is facing both federal and state charges for allegedly assaulting federal task force officers.
According to the criminal complaint, in September, Johnson "forcibly assaulted, resisted, opposed, impeded, intimidated, and interfered" Louisville Metro Police Department officers while they were on the roof of the Jefferson County Grand Jury Building -- keeping watch on Jefferson Square Park where an armed protest took place.
Johnson was seen brandishing an AR platform rifle at the officers.
Johnson was arrested at his West Chester, Ohio home on December 3. He appeared before a federal judge in Louisville last Thursday.
The FBI Louisville Division and Louisville Metro Police Department are actively investigating this case.
The NFAC leader is set to be arraigned on Dec. 18 at 1 p.m. in Jefferson County.
If convicted, Johnson faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison.
