Last week Deputy Sheriff/School Resource Officer Mike Lewis filed an investigation report with our office regarding an alleged incident at the Chillicothe Middle School.  It was reported a juvenile made statements about wishing he had a gun as he would harm teacher(s).  The student had been removed from the class and Juvenile authorities were contacted.  The school has taken administrative action and the investigation continues.  A report has been submitted to the juvenile authorities for consideration of charge(s).

On April 17, we investigated a domestic disturbance in Utica.  No arrests were made due to lack of probable cause and guidance was given to help resolve the matter.
