Assaults Still Hitting High Marks
Monday, July 9, 2012 at 9:27AM The high temperatures we’ve experience recently have not helped to cool people tempers apparently. Looking at the arrests reports from the Wilkes Sheriff’s Department over the past week, assaults continue to top the list. From simple assault to assault with a deadly weapon, 14 people were arrested for assault last week by the Sheriff’s Department. In addition, 5 were arrested for larceny, 4 for drug possession, 3 for financial fraud, several for failure to appear or probation violation, and one arrested for vandalism.
