Seth Folk, 17, of 10887 Walnut St., Lakeside, Lakeview, was charged with domestic violence and persistent disorderly conduct following an incident at his residence Monday evening.
Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office responded to the residence about 8:30 p.m. on a report of a domestic dispute.
Seth reportedly had called the sheriff’s office that evening, and told dispatchers that his mother had assaulted him. However, his mother, Kari L. Folk, 37, also spoke to dispatchers and told them that her son had assaulted her.
When deputies arrived, they found Seth outside of the residence. He told deputies that his mother had been intoxicated and that she had started calling him names. Deputies did not observe any signs of physical injury to Seth.
Deputies then spoke with Ms. Folk, whom they noted was not intoxicated. She said her son had been argumentative that day and refused to listen to her. He then allegedly grabbed her by the arm, and deputies observed bruising to her arm.
Seth was placed under arrest and was transported to the Logan County Juvenile Detention Center.
