He faces several charges, including assault with a dangerous weapon and assault to intimidate.

Investigators say the incident happened over Memorial Day weekend while the victim was fishing with his daughter.

The rock did not hit the victim or cause damage to his boat.

McPartlan is due back in court in July.
