SHERIFF’S OFFICE: RANDLE MAN THREATENS TO KILL HIS FAMILY

• Deputies were called to the 100 block of Young Road in Randle about 12:30 a.m. today where a woman told them her ex-husband had threatened to shoot his entire family and then himself, or load them up in a car and drive them off a cliff. Deputies were also told the 43-year-old man had thrown a cell phone at his teenage step-daughter and shoved his ex-wife, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. The suspect was not found so the sheriff’s office is asking the Lewis County Prosecutor’s Office to file a charge against him of felony harassment, according to Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown.

INTRUDER HELD AT GUNPOINT

• A 26-year-old Randle man was detained by a resident with a shotgun early Sunday morning after he was suspected of breaking into a pump house and allegedly trying to kick in a door of the nearby home on the 11,000 block of U.S. Highway 12, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. Evan R. Tashelle said he was just trying to get warm, according to Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown. He was arrested and booked into the Lewis County Jail for first-degree trespassing, Brown said.

DOGNAPPING ALLEGED

• The sheriff’s office reported yesterday the landlord of an Ethel-area rental home was arrested for allegedly sneaking into the home and stealing a puppy he told his tenant he could not keep there. A deputy called to the 2000 block of U.S. Highway 12 on Monday found footprints inside the home which matched the boots of the landlord, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. Arrested for residential burglary was Brian S. Steward, 46, Brown said. Steward denied going into the home, according to Brown. The 6-month old Pit Bull and Labrador mix has not been found, she said. A container of laundry detergent was missing as well, Brown said.

PUPPY STOLEN

• A deputy took a report on Monday from the area of Jackson Highway and state Route 508 that a man stole a black Heeler puppy valued at $300, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. A 47-year-old man described as transient was selling puppies on the side of the road and said the prospective buyer took a dog, put it in a vehicle and drove away, according to Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown.

THEFT

• The sheriff’s office reported yesterday that someone kicked open a door of a home on the 100 block of Roth Road in Winlock and stole a television, a laptop computer, a cell phone and eight boxes of ammunition.

• The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office reported yesterday that a woman at the 1800 block of Van Wormer Street in Centralia discovered someone had broken into a locked box in her bedroom and stolen about $10,000.  It appeared someone used a key to get in it and it happened in the days before last Wednesday, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. A deputy was told the woman’s son had had friends visiting the home, according to Brown.
