Man with weapon

An 18-year-old man with a handgun reportedly kicked in the front door of Ameenah Plummer's residence on E. Oak Street on Friday night. She told police he pointed the gun at her and her husband, but when she picked up the phone to call for help, he fled in a vehicle.

Stolen vehicles

The theft of several vehicles were reported during
the weekend.

Student assaulted

An 18-year-old Spring Creek High School student was reportedly assaulted by a 14-year-old female student as she arrived at school Friday morning.

The younger student reportedly approached the victim from behind, grabbed her hair, then pulled her to the ground and hit her several times. The two were separated by school personnel and no medical treatment was necessary.

The incident was investigated by Wayne County Sheriff's Office.

Driver wrecks twice

The first accident happened at 9:45 a.m. at Berke-

Billie Kaye Outley, 48, Central Drive, was charged with failure to reduce speed after she collided with a car as Charles Frank Johnson, 58, Bayleaf Drive, loaded items into it.

There was $900 damage to Outley's car and $100 worth done to Johnson's vehicle.

The second accident occurred at 3:39 p.m. at E. Ash Street near N. Spence Avenue.

Ms. Outley was reportedly traveling east in the right lane on Ash Street when she made an improper lane change where Bryan Thomas Powell, 32, E. Ash Street, was driving.
