Bay St. Louis mayor’s family ‘in a panic’ from bull horn barrage from former mayoral candidate

Former Bay St. Louis mayoral candidate Jeff Harding was arrested this week on charges he harassed Mayor Les Fillingame’s daughter, Katie Stewart, while she was driving by following her in a van and honking his horn.

Stewart filed affidavits Monday alleging Harding on Aug. 13 “did purposely, knowingly and unlawfully attempt to put (her) in fear of imminent serious bodily harm by following her bumper to bumper, blasting horn, putting (her) and her seven-year-old in fear of causing accident or bodily harm.”

According to the affidavit, Stewart’s “son was in a panic due to the horn and him following so close they felt fear for their life.”

Harding was arrested on charges of simple assault, attempt by physical menace to create fear, following too closely and reckless driving.
