Investigators say the case stems from an incident on Jan. 26 in the Town of Bristol. Authorities determined Button operated a track loader in a reckless manner, striking the victim and causing serious physical injury.

Deputies arrested Button on Wednesday, Feb. 10. He went through arraignment in the Centralized Arraignment Part and secured release on his own recognizance.

Button will appear in Bristol Town Court at a later date for further proceedings.
