The owner of Wings To Go, which closed last week, was arrested on the felony charge of writing worthless checks.

According to Detective Glen Kornhauser of the Boone Police Department, 52-year-old Paul Raymond Tatum, of Boone, was arrested after authorities investigated checks he had written to the Winkler Organization for rent for his Wings To Go business in April of this year.

Wings To Go closed last Tuesday.  A note on the door sited personal and financial issues as the reason for closure.  The restaurant on Boone Heights Drive opened about two years ago.

Kornhauser said Tatum was released on a $2,000 bond and will appear in court on July 10.
