Police Beat

JEFFERSON COUNTY SHERIFF

Can’t do that: A Yorkville man told deputies Sunday his landlord “removed all his belongings from his residence and may have had his vehicle towed.” He admitted being a month behind on his rent but said he had never been served with an eviction notice.

Lights out: A Wintersville resident just released from rehab after a jail stay said Sunday someone had cut an extension cord she was using to power her apartment until she could get the electric turned back on. She said while she was away in rehab, someone stole government checks meant for her that she would have used to pay her electric bill. Later, another tenant called “hysterical and crying” because the woman who had been released from rehab had shown up at her door “screaming and threatening her” and multiple others in the complex had come to her apartment and threatened her.

Wanted her gone: A caller reported a County Road 54 in Richmond resident was “attempting to push her Jeep into the roadway with a tractor” Sunday. Deputies located the man, who told them he wanted her off his property and said it never became physical. She left.
