The Bradley County Sheriff's Office reported a case of identity theft over the weekend when a woman discovered her bank account was overdrawn. She contacted her bank and was told the account has four charges pending in Illinois. Those transactions amount to several hundred dollars.
Another woman received notice from a collection agency of an unpaid bill for a computer that was purchased two years ago. She filed a police report denying any knowledge of the purchase.
Last week a woman learned of charges in her name amounting to several thousand dollars that were made without her knowledge.
The sheriff's office investigated several assaults over the weekend. In one investigation both parties involved in the disagreement were arrested for domestic assault. In another, a 17-year-old was named in Juvenile Court papers charged with assault for verbal threats he made.
A Chevrolet pickup truck that incurred mechanical problems on Francisco Road was gone when the owner went to check on the vehicle. A check with local towing businesses did not turn up any information on the truck's whereabouts.
