Assistant Chillicothe Police Chief Rick Sampsel reports officers dealt with a fleeing man and responded to an alleged assault the night of August 5th. Each led to an individual being taken to the law enforcement center, processed, and transferred to the Daviess DeKalb Regional Jail.
Officers attempted to execute an arrest warrant in the 400 block of Clay Street when the man allegedly fled on foot onto surrounding streets and through yards. Sampsel notes a Livingston County deputy eventually apprehended the man on Woodward Street near Jackson Street.
He says Chillicothe police officers responded to a reported assault in the 1100 block of Walnut Street and found a woman to be in possession of illegal drugs and paraphernalia. She was also wanted on a probation and parole violation warrant. The woman was taken to the Daviess DeKalb Regional Jail, awaiting extradition and the filing of local charges.
