Theft from store
The owner of TJ Fashion on Morgan Street in Andrews reported about $100 worth of ladies items were stolen from the store Dec. 23.
It appears entry to the store was made through a back door.
Jeep window busted
A 23-year-old man met deputies at Tootsie’s convenience store at the Highway 701/Choppee Road intersection Monday night because the window of his Jeep was broken.
He said a man he knows, also 23-years-old, used a stick to do the damage.
The victim said it happened at a home on Harvey Court. He said when he saw the suspect walking towards him with the stick, he tried to back up and leave but the man hit the window before he could get away.
The man was told to see a magistrate about the vandalism.
Kidnapping threat
A Georgetown woman called deputies Monday because the father of her child called and said he was coming to take her.
The woman said the man was recently released from a mental hospital and she has had full custody of her daughter for more than a decade.
The woman called Greyhound Busline and was told the man did have a one-way ticket to Georgetown.
The woman said she is fearful because the man had been admitted to the hospital years ago after saying he was hearing voices in his head demanding he kill his daughter.
She also said she was choked to the point of unconsciousness by the man who threw her in a ditch.
Assaulted by father
Soup for supper led to an altercation between a Georgetown man and his 32-year-old daughter Monday night.
The woman said the argument began when her nephew refused to eat the soup. She said she told her father she was leaving and he allegedly slapped her face and threw her over a chair.
She said she went outside and got in a truck but her father pulled her out causing her to fall on the ground along with her daughter.
The woman said she did not want to press charges.
Debit card fraud
The number from a debit card belonging to a 34-year-old Andrews woman was used in a Wal Mart and at a McDonalds in Tampa, Florida Sunday.
The woman said she does not know who has the card number. She was told there was nothing local authorities can do since it happened in Florida.
