Steubenville Police

Losing patience: Police responded to a Greenwich Drive location for a 9-1-1 hangup call, Tuesday. Residents advised their “infant child was playing with the phone and accidentally hit the emergency button.” Police pointed out it was “the third time in the past two weeks that they’ve responded for the same issue and it needs to be addressed.”

Influencers: Employees at Wal-Mart said they spotted a woman eating lunchmeat packaged from the deli and advised it is “a typical act that usually precedes theft by offenders, Monday. They claim they watched the woman go to the self-checkout and put three reduced price tags on the conveyor belt that she “blatantly” used to scan the items in her cart, known as “ticket switching.” Police said Loren L. Cutri, 36, 966 McKinley Ave., Steubenville, was cited for petit theft. Cutri allegedly told police she “watched ” people ticket-switch on YouTube “and they were never caught” and offered to purchase the items.

Weighed down: Employees at Kroger provided police with video of three people who walked out of the store without paying for $300 in beer and various meats, Monday. Video also was given to police of a man “who has been shoplifting diapers.” To date he’s stolen $180 in diapers, they said.

Request: A Market Street resident told police she wanted a male to stay away from her, Monday. The male had left but returned while police were there, so they advised him to stay away.

Booked: Jonathan Pullie, 49, 707 Market St., Apt. 308, Steubenville, failure to appear (Municipal Court), Monday.

Cited: Rachel L. Nimtz, 22, Holt, Mich., speeding.
