CPD sergeant takes stand in day 3 of Bengals RB Joe Mixon's trial

The defense was expected to call its witnesses Wednesday, including Mixon, but the entirety of the day was taken up by the state's witness, a Cincinnati police sergeant. The sergeant took over the investigation into Mixon's case in February after charges were initially dropped before being refiled in April. Mixon allegedly waved a gun in a woman's face during a road rage incident. After the charge was refiled, Mixon appeared in court and pleaded not guilty. The charge is a first-degree misdemeanor and could carry a maximum sentence of 180 days, a maximum fine of $1000 and a maximum of five years of probation in Ohio.
