Greene County sheriff's deputies are asking the public to help them find a woman who court documents say backed into a law enforcement officer with her car, pinning him between two vehicles.

Aera Keller, 20, is wanted on one count of receiving stolen property and one count of second-degree assault on a law enforcement officer.

Court documents say Keller was contacted at the Greene County Courthouse and notified there was a warrant for her arrest on the stolen property charges on Monday morning.

Keller fled the courthouse, documents say, and a Greene County Court security deputy followed her out to the parking lot, repeatedly telling her to stop.

Keller got into a black sedan as the deputy continued to tell her to come with him, when court documents say she backed her vehicle into him, pinning him between her car and another vehicle.

The deputy suffered injuries to his left leg but was released back to work with limitations.

If you have any information about Keller's whereabouts, call the GCSO Tip Line at 417-829-6230 or 911.
