    Bradford man jailed for alleged domestic violence

    A Bradford man is in McKean County Jail, charged in an alleged domestic violence incident at his High Street home.

    Grant David Lewis, 46, of 189 High St., is charged with strangulation, a second-degree felony; two counts of simple assault domestic violence, second-degree misdemeanors; and two counts of harassment, a summary.

    According to court records, at 11:51 a.m. Thursday, police were called to a domestic violence report at Lewis’ residence. Upon arrival, police found the victim in a vehicle outside the residence. She had obvious facial injuries, police said.

    She told police Lewis had choked her and hit her in her face, knocked her to the floor and kicked her in the side of her head and her ribs, court records read.

    The victim was taken to Bradford Regional Medical Center for treatment of her injuries, police said.

    Lewis was arraigned before District Judge Dom Cercone and remanded to jail in lieu of $25,000 bail. He is scheduled to appear in Central Court Jan. 11.

    Eldred man charged in alleged assault

    SMETHPORT — An Eldred man will face a preliminary hearing later this month on allegations of indecent assault from November.

    Michael Eugene Murphy, 53, of 26 Burris Road, is charged with two counts of indecent assault, a second-degree misdemeanor, and harassment, a summary offense.

    According to court records, at 11 p.m. Nov. 27, at The Farmers Valley Inn, Murphy told a woman she would have to do “sexual favors” for him, told her she was going to “pay for pissing him off,” pinned her against a wall, pulled her clothing out of the way and touched her without her permission.

    She attempted to get away, and told him that she was scared. However, the alleged assault didn’t stop until Murphy heard a vehicle in the parking lot, court records stated.

    Murphy is currently free on $5,000 unsecured bail. He is scheduled for a preliminary hearing at 9 a.m. Jan. 16 before District Judge Bill Todd.

    Weapons-related charge withdrawn

    KANE — A weapons-related charge against an Eldred man has been withdrawn.

    Dustin Baldwin, 21, of 45 Lawrence Lane, had been charged with making a false statement on a firearms form, a third-degree felony, and unsworn falsification to authorities, a third-degree misdemeanor.

    An online court docket indicated the charges against him were withdrawn. No reason was given.
