SHERIFF’S OFFICE
— Ketlynn Jackson, 10th Street, Wellsville, called at 12:23 a.m. Monday about money stolen from her vehicle while it was parked just north of Lisbon at 7891 state Route 45 in Center Township. The deputy was unable to contact Jackson to obtain more details.
— Regina Minerd called about a suspicious person loitering about the McDonald’s north of Lisbon at 1 a.m. Monday. No one was seen in the area but the call may be related to the above mentioned vehicle theft, which occurred just south of the fast-food restaurant.
— A sexual assault reported to the sheriff’s office at 10:55 p.m. Sunday by a Fairfield Township woman was determined to have occurred in another jurisdiction, and the matter was turned over to East Palestine police.
— Melissa G. Doyle, 32, Butler Mobile City, U.S. Route 62, Butler Township, was charged with obstructing police business for lying when asked if there was a man in her house trailer by deputies responding to a report of a domestic dispute at the trailer park. The first call was at 11:30 p.m. Friday, and a deputy found Doyle sitting on her steps looking sad and stating she had just lost her job but there was no boyfriend. The deputy left, only to be called back by someone who said Doyle was chasing her naked boyfriend through the parking lot and yelling for him to return her phone. Again, the deputy found Doyle sitting on the steps with her phone and looking puzzled at him, and she again denied that her boyfriend was there. Rather than leave, this time the deputy parked behind some dumpsters, and soon a third call was received, this time saying a naked man had entered Doyle’s trailer. The deputy went to the trailer and could hear voices that became silent when he knocked on the door. Doyle answered and the deputy asked to be let in so they could get this over with. Doyle demurred but changed her mind and let the deputy in while still denying there was any man in the trailer. After backup arrived in the form of a Perry Township police officer, the deputy searched the trailer and found 31-year-old Lance M. Morris in the locked bathroom, wearing no pants. When asked why he was hiding, Morris told the deputy he fell asleep while going to the bathroom.
— The burglar alarm at the home of Wayne Ramsey, Hawk Road, East Rochester, was activated at 1:21 p.m. Sunday, and deputies arrived to find the man door to the garage ajar but everything appeared to be undisturbed.
