Two Andrews boys — ages 14 and 16 —  are facing serious charges after they allegedly forced a 12-year-old girl to perform sex acts.

The child told deputies she was riding her bicycle near her home Dec. 10 when the two teens “coerced her” into a home on their road.

Once inside, the boys reportedly threatened the girl with bodily harm if she did not perform the sex act on both of them, which she did.

The report was not filed until Dec. 23 because the girl’s mother did not know until she was told by her son. He said he heard one of the suspects talking about what they did.

The girl, in a written statement, said the acts were forced.

Sheriff’s Office spokesman Lt. Neil Johnson said no charges have been filed as the investigation continues.

 Not what he was expecting

A man who admitted he was too intoxicated to drive through a license checkpoint Jan. 2, stopped at a house on Dixie Drive in the Pleasant Hill area and asked the home owner if he could stay there and sober up.

The woman who answered the door said it would be OK but warned the 47-year-old Plantersville man her husband was a deputy.

When he heard that, the man thanked her and walked away.

Her husband, the deputy, put on his uniform and walked outside. By then, the suspect was standing near some trees and when he saw the officer he threw two plastic bags that had been in his pocket in the woods.

The officer then saw there was at least one other person in the suspect’s vehicle, so he  held them at gunpoint until backup units arrived.

When the other officers got on the scene, the deputy secured the suspect and placed him in his patrol car that had been parked in the back of his house.

He also retrieved the bags from the woods which contained marijuana.

The man was charged with possession with the intent to distribute marijuana.

Tampered mail

A man from Fieldgate Circle in Pawleys Island said someone stole mail from his mailbox in mid-December.

He said  he did not know the mail had been taken until New Year’s Day when he received a call from someone who said the letters had been found in a ditch in Waterford Heights.

The victim said he knew it was too late for deputies to determine who did it. He only wanted a report on file in case there was important information such as credit card numbers.

Mail belonging to two other people was also found in the ditch.

Stolen parts

More than $700 worth of car parts were stolen from a home in the 2500 block of Carvers Bay Road Monday.

The victim said the parts were taken from the area where he parks his tractor trailer truck.

Taken were six chrome panels and two drive shafts.

A witness reported seeing two men in a white pickup truck taking the items.

Unknown 911 call

Deputies were sent to a home on Lodgepole Road in Andrews early Jan. 1 after Central Dispatch received a call from that location.

When officers arrived, they saw a man walk inside the house.

The officers asked a woman who answered the door if they could talk to the man since he called 911.

They were told he was asleep, which they knew was untrue since they had just seen him.

The woman said they had permission to go to the 23-year-old man’s bedroom. When they got in there he was pretending to be asleep.

He was questioned abut why he called  911 and repeatedly refused to give an answer. He told the officers to take him to jail because he was not going to tell them anything.

They obliged and transported him to jail charged with disorderly conduct.

Pick pocket reported

A 71-year-old Murrells Inlet man says his wallet was stolen by a woman he was having  drinks with at T-Bones in Murrells Inlet New Year’s eve.

The man said as he got up to leave, he felt something nudge him in the back but he didn’t think much of it.

Another patron told him they saw the woman take the wallet from his back pocket.

Several employees approached the suspect and another woman she was with in the parking lot but they became hostile and drove away.

The man said there was no cash in  the wallet but they did get away with his credit cards.

Cleaned out at Christmas

A Georgetown couple was throwing a Christmas party at their home for their employees Dec. 26 when they received a telephone call from a couple they know who live in Holden Beach, N.C.

They asked if they could come over and were told about the party. The Georgetown woman told her friend she would call her back and set up a time they could get together.

A few minutes later, the N.C. couple showed up and the door and, to be cordial, the local couple invited them in.

After the party ended, the visiting couple were the last ones to leave at about midnight.

After they finally left, the homeowner noticed a lot of things missing from her house including 12 pairs of blue jeans that had been in the washing machine, a purse and wallet which contained credit card, gift cards and check books, a diamond wedding ring and several other pieces of jewelry.

The victim said she has had her employees at her home previously and there have been no problems. She said she believes the N.C. couple is responsible and there is a possibility the jewelry may have been pawned.

The preceding reports, compiled by Scott Harper, were collected  from local law enforcement offices.
