Glenn Jacobs, the towering insurance man also known as "Kane" the professional wrestler, is moving another step closer to running for Knox County mayor.
Jacobs, who runs Jacobs Insurance Associates in Halls, has filed paperwork with the Knox County Election Commission appointing a political treasurer, Brian Carl. He identifies himself as a Republican.
He told our sister affiliate WBIR in Knoxville last year he was seriously considering running for county mayor.
Appointing a political treasurer is yet another step toward formally running, he said Thursday. His paperwork is dated March 1.
"Knox County is a great place and we're so happy and feel so blessed to live here," Jacobs said of he and his wife Crystal. "I want to do my part going forward."
