HUNTERSVILLE, North Carolina — Rod Moskowitz, a sports agent who represents several prominent NASCAR drivers, was arrested in Huntersville on Thursday after an incident involving a vehicle, according to Mecklenburg County court records and an arrest affidavit reported by The Charlotte Focal. Moskowitz was charged with assault with a deadly weapon on a government employee and taken to the Mecklenburg County jail.

The affidavit alleges that Moskowitz, 52, was driving a 2023 Toyota Sequoia aggressively on Cramur Drive shortly after noon on October 22, The Charlotte Focal reported. A Huntersville police officer reportedly saw the vehicle enter a ditch and become stuck briefly before Moskowitz backed out and pulled into a driveway. WSOC-TV, in reporting also citing the affidavit, said officers were on Cramur Drive for a civil disturbance, described the Sequoia as orange, and said an officer waved his hands in an unobstructed view of the driver and struck the car with his hand in an attempt to get him to stop.

The affidavit says several people, including officers, tried to get Moskowitz to stop, and that one officer had to move out of the vehicle's path three times to avoid being hit, both outlets reported. Officers eventually removed Moskowitz from the vehicle and arrested him. No collision or injury was described in the reports.

Court records show a judge set Moskowitz's bond at $1,000 during a court appearance on Friday, October 23, The Charlotte Focal reported. WSOC-TV likewise reported that he spent the night in the Mecklenburg County jail after initially being held on no bond and that Judge Roderick Davis set bond at $1,000 on Friday morning.

Moskowitz is listed as chief executive of PROSPORT Management and head of its racing division, The Charlotte Focal said. The company represents athletes in several leagues; its NASCAR clients include Denny Hamlin, Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson, William Byron and Bubba Wallace.

The charge is an allegation, and the records cited do not establish guilt. The available records and affidavit do not include a statement from Moskowitz or his representatives, The Charlotte Focal said, and WSOC-TV said it had reached out to PROSPORT Management for comment and had messaged Huntersville police.
