The following reports were collected  from local law enforcement offices:

Deputies responded to a Pawleys Island home because of a reported fight only to learn a 13-year-old girl had allegedly been raped.

The girl’s mother asked her daughter to tell the deputies what happened. The teen was hesitant to talk but finally said she went to the house of a 21-year-old man Oct. 30 because she was afraid to go home.

She said while she was at the man’s house, he forced her to have sex.

The deputies were interrupted when they received a call from dispatch about an emergency elsewhere.

The woman and her daughter were asked to go to the Sheriff’s Office to fill out a full report.

No arrest has been made.

Cows at large

 A man from Karlton Lane reported his brother’s cows were eating the collards from his garden.

The cows walked onto the victim’s property from his brother’s adjacent yard.

He said the animals consumed about 30 plants from two separate gardens.

The man said this is an ongoing problem that his brother refuses to solve by getting rid of the cows.

He said his brother is wheelchair bound and cannot care for the cows.

The victim was advised to see a magistrate about the matter.

Warrant served

While on patrol on Kings River Road in Pawleys Island at about 8 p.m. Nov. 13, a deputy saw a man on a bicycle with no light.

The officer asked the man his name and through a records check it was learned he had a bench warrant for his arrest.

The 48-year-old man tried to flee when he was told he was being arrested but was quickly subdued.

He was taken to the ground after a brief struggle.

The deputy found a plastic pipe in the man’s pocket which he admitted was used to smoke marijuana.

Welfare check

Deputies responded to a home in Pawleys Island Nov. 14 to check in the conditions after receiving a call there were children living there with no electricity.

However, when the deputy arrived he found the house did have power and “appeared to be in acceptable condition.”

Stolen parts

The owners of First Vehicle Services on Browns Ferry Road reported a theft of parts Nov. 13.

He said a drive shaft was stolen off of a bush hog on the property.

He said he questioned workers about the part but no one had seen it.

Harassing texts

A 20-year-old Georgetown woman said her 21-year-old ex-boyfriend tried to break into her Graves Station community home Nov. 11 and when that was unsuccessful, he started sending her text messages.

The messages said things such as “I hate you” and “I want to marry you.”

The woman said she has asked the man to leave her alone.

Deputies talked to the man and warned him to cease communications with the woman.

More harassment

In a separate incident, a 22-year-old Georgetown man said he is being harassed by is ex-girlfriend.

The man said a court has ordered no contact between the two but, on Nov. 12, she followed him to a gas station.

The man said when he went inside to pay for his purchase, his ex got in his car and started arguing with his new girlfriend.

When the man walked out of the store, his ex tried to talk to him but he drove away without speaking to her.

The man said he was undecided about whether he would press charges.
