Steubenville Police

Disorderly: A Lawson Avenue resident is facing charges after a dispute with a man renting a garage from him ended with him screaming at police, Monday. Police allege the owner, Michael Ledyard, 64, 801 Lawson Ave., “became highly upset and continued yelling and cursing” in the presence of bystanders, including children, in the alley behind Euclid Avenue. They claimed they told him several times he needed to move is vehicle so it wasn’t blocking the garage and driveway, and after he told them he couldn’t find his keys they told him it would be towed “began cursing and yelling … again,” and when told to stop claim he told them it was his First Amendment right. Ledyard was charged with obstruction, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct and blocking traffic in an alley, but in Municipal Court Tuesday he was fined $150 plus costs after being found guilty of misdemeanor disorderly conduct and the remaining charges were dismissed.

She said when she wouldn’t let the woman in, she eventually left the area.

Claimed: A woman who ordered a computer off of Amazon claims she never got the package, Friday. She said the company’s records show it being delivered Aug. 28 and had a picture of it on her porch, but she said it wasn’t there and there’s no footage of anyone coming on her property to steal it.

Jefferson County Sheriff

Big expectations: A caller said his grandfather “came after him with a knife and is threatening to kill him,” Monday. The grandfather said they argued because the caller was “demanding” he “pay for him to have a car and an apartment,” telling deputies it’s an ongoing issue and the caller can’t seem to hold a job. His grandfather said he grabbed the knife for protection after his grandson threw him across the room and onto the ground. His grandson confirmed they argued over money and agreed it’s a common occurrence, but claimed he threw his grandfather after he grabbed the knife. The two separated for the night.

Out of it: A woman in Empire said a man showed up on her doorstep who “appeared to be under the influence of drugs, alcohol or both,” Sunday. She said she stepped outside to find out why he was there and he was “not making sense and a couple of times took off his shirt, put his face in (it) and began crying.” She told him she didn’t want him in her house so he left.

Altered reality: A caller said her daughter was “yelling and screaming and throwing things” and appeared to be in an altered mental state, Sunday. Deputies said the daughter was “pacing and looking for things that were not there” and her answers to questions were “incoherent and nonsensical.” The female was taking prescribed methadone and when they checked the bottle, discovered there weren’t as many pills left in the bottle as should have been.

Tipped: An ATV crash was reported on township Road 307, Hammondsville, Saturday. The driver said his tire went flat and he tried to stop on an embankment in such a way that the tire would be suspended in the air so it would be easier to change, but it tipped over and he hit his head.

Break in: A Springdale Avenue, Wintersville, resident said someone forced a door open and took a coin jar and a flip phone, Tuesday. He told deputies the figures there was about $100 in coins in the jar.
