Danny L. Ellis Jr., 18, of 8867 Township Road 239, Lakeview, who is currently incarcerated in the Logan County Jail, was issued a misdemeanor theft charge Saturday related to a theft from a fellow inmate.
Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office received a report Jan. 21 from inmate Steven L. Burk, 66, of Bellefontaine.
Mr. Burk stated that Mr. Ellis had taken his personal identification number for the jail phone system and used the number to access Mr. Burk’s phone account and make a total of 42 phone calls. The phone calls cost a total of $217.78.
The defendant eventually admitted to using Mr. Burk’s PIN and was issued the charge.
Driver cited in C.R. 13 crash
Lowell R. Lowe, 61, of Bellefontaine, was cited for improper passing following a non-injury accident about 6:35 p.m. Wednesday on County Road 13.
Deputies report he was operating a westbound car just west of County Road 32 when he attempted to pass a westbound pickup operated by Robert C. Wildermuth, 70, of Bellefontaine. The pickup made a left turn into a field, and was struck by Mr. Lowe’s car.
The car then went off the road and struck a telephone pedestal box.
Damage was heavy to the car and light to the pickup. Both drivers were wearing their seat belts.
