John Ahrens, a WSOC (Channel 9) meteorologist for nine years, is due in court Monday on a domestic assault charge brought by his estranged wife.
Ahrens, 38, was arrested Saturday after his wife, Sobrina Driver, accused him of throwing rocks at her during a confrontation.
Ahrens spent the weekend in the Mecklenburg County Jail and is scheduled for a first court appearance Monday morning on a misdemeanor charge of assault on a female.
WSOC news director Julie Szulczewski said Sunday that station management does not comment on personnel matters, but pointed to Channel 9’s report on the arrest noting that Ahrens denied the allegations.
Driver said Sunday she did not want to comment on Saturday’s confrontation.
