PROCTORVILLE — Two Proctorville residents and a man from Huntington, W.Va., have been indicted in the December assault of a Huntington cab driver.

Indicted were William Hale, 24, of Wayne County; and Christopher D. Colburn and Brandy D. Davis, both of County Road 107, Proctorville.

Hale was charged with aggravated robbery, felonious assault, tampering with evidence and theft. Colburn and Davis were charged with complicity to aggravated robbery and complicity to tampering with evidence.

The three face the charges in connection with an early morning stabbing of Walter “Corky” Asbury at the Exxon gasoline station on County Road 107 in Proctorville.

During a recent preliminary hearing in Lawrence County Municipal Court, authorities said Hale allegedly had told the couple that he wanted to rob somebody and that he wanted money. Hale was supposed to have used a prepaid cellular phone to call a Huntington cab company requesting a cab to come to Proctorville to take him to an exotic dancer club in Huntington, according to testimony detective Aaron Bollinger gave to the court.

Currently Hale is in the Western Regional Jail in Barboursville, W.Va., on a parole violation.

Also indicted in this session of the Lawrence County Grand Jury was Kyle Hayes, 19, of Proctorville in the rape of a 15-year-old girl. Charged in the same incident was Michael “Chris” Fulks, 20, of Chesapeake, was indicted on one charge of contributing to the unruliness or delinquency of a minor, which is a misdemeanor.

The alleged incident happened around 2 a.m. Jan. 3 in a vehicle in Rome Township, authorities say. The girl and the two men knew each other and alcohol was involved, according to investigators.
