GANG OF TEENS THREATENS BOISTFORT TEEN
• An 18-year-old male armed himself with a rifle and fired at a car yesterday after seven individuals reportedly came to his house in the Boistfort area and threatened to kill him. Deputies called about 1 p.m. were told one of the suspects kicked open the front door at the 2400 block of Pe Ell-McDonald Road, prompting the 18-year-old to fire several shots with a .22 rifle at their vehicle, some of them hitting the rear window, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. The subjects left. Deputies found the car on state Route 6 and detained them, arresting six teenagers. Booked into the Lewis County Jail for felony harassment were Cody J. Snider, 19, Christopher B. Arkell, 19, both from Chehalis and Megan M. Striefel, 18, of Salkum. The juveniles arrested were from Chehalis. They are two 17-year-old males and a 14-year-old girl. Lewis County sheriff’s Cmdr. Steve Aust said they were still sorting out the motive, but it was related to a disagreement about one of the males dating a girl who is the ex-girlfriend of the victim.
