JAMESTOWN POLICE DEPARTMENT

— Maurice C. Hough, 42, of Jamestown, was charged with seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and two counts of tampering with physical evidence early Thursday.

Officers were on patrol checking around Persell School when they observed a male on a motorized scooter riding on the running track. The male was identified as Hough who had a warrant from Jamestown City Court. During the arrest, on two occasions, Hough attempted to conceal and destroy evidence. Hough was found to be in possession of over one half of an ounce of methamphetamine. Hough was held pending arraignment.

— Michael C Hetrick, 39, was charged with second-degree burglary, first-degree criminal contempt, criminal obstruction of breathing and blood circulation, unlawful imprisonment and resisting arrest after an early Wednesday incident on the west side.

At about 4:10 a.m., officers responded to an unwanted person at an address. Upon arrival, officers were made aware the subject was Hetrick, who had a valid order of protection to stay away from that address and the victim who resides there.

The female victim told officers Hetrick had entered her home without permission and would not leave.

During the incident, it was discovered that Hetrick held the victim down, placing his hand over her nose and mouth causing her to not be able to breathe.

Hetrick had left the scene prior to officers arrival and was located in a wooded area near the residence. While taking Hetrick into custody, he actively resisted arrest. After a brief struggle, Hetrick was taken into custody and transported to the Jamestown City Jail where he was being held pending arraignment.
