A Dundalk man facing numerous charges, including attempted murder and assaulting law enforcement, is being held without bail in the Harford County Detention Center.

William Galvin Ensor, of the 200 block of Dundalk Ave., was charged Jan. 19 with the following: one count attempted murder; two counts of first-degree assault; one count possession of a firearm with a felony conviction; one count of first-degree burglary; one count third-degree burglary; one count fourth-degree burglary; one count of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute; one count possession; one count of a handgun found on his person; two counts of second-degree assault; two counts of second-degree assault of law enforcement; one count resisting arrest; one count of malicious destruction of property; and one count of theft $1,000 to $10,000.

Ensor, 28, also faces several traffic-related charges, including driving even though his license had been revoked license, failure to remain at the scene of an accident and fleeing and eluding police.

Public Defender Lynne McChrystal told Harford County District Court Judge Susan Hazlett during Ensor's bail review hearing Friday that he suffers from anxiety, but isn't currently on medication. She also said that Ensor would be unable to post the $1 million bail.

Assistant State's Attorney Jeffrey Michael said he was "concerned" with Ensor's six prior failures to appear in court, and added that the "victims in this case are law enforcement officers."

Michael told Hazlett that Ensor allegedly made threatening statements to the police officers while being transported to detention center's inter-agency processing center. Michael then gave a transcript of what was allegedly said to the judge because he did not want to read it aloud due to the vulgar language.

The assistant state's attorney went on to say that after the alleged burglary occurred, police arrested Ensor and reported as having found him allegedly with loaded guns. Michael said the homeowners and victims of the alleged burglary, identified the guns as their own. The male homeowner claimed he never leaves his guns loaded.

On the closed circuit television broadcasting from the detention center, by which Ensor appeared for the bail review hearing, Ensor repeated while Michael spoke in the courtroom, "That's a lie."

Hazlett and McChrystal told Ensor to not make comments and not to speak about details of the case. Ensor also said he didn't threaten anyone.

When asked if he had anything he wanted to say, Ensor told the judge, "I would not run from my girlfriend's mom's house," referring to the residence he would be staying at if released.

After taking several minutes to read the charging documents, Hazlett said that, "given the circumstances," Ensor was "an extreme threat" to the community, and the judge decided to hold him without bail.
