A member of the Eureka Springs City Council is facing charges from incidents that occurred last summer.

The release below is from the Arkansas State Police:

On Friday, March 13, 2026, Special Agents with the Arkansas State Police (ASP) Criminal Investigation Division (CID) arrested Eureka Springs City Councilman Harold Frederick Meyer, 76, charging him with First-Degree Criminal Mischief and Aggravated Assault for two separate incidents that occurred during the summer.

On June 3, 2025, the Eureka Springs Police Department (ESPD) requested assistance from ASP CID regarding an incident involving Councilman Meyer damaging personal property during a community event at a city park. The investigation resulted in a felony charge of First-Degree Criminal Mischief.

On July 14, 2025, ESPD submitted a second request for an ASP CID investigation into Councilman Meyer’s role in a physical altercation with a neighbor. At the conclusion of that investigation, Meyer was charged with Aggravated Assault.

Meyer was taken into custody by ASP CID Special Agents, processed at the Carroll County Detention Center, and released on his own recognizance.
