front of the bus, at which time the northbound vehicle could not safely stop.

Officer arrived and located the raccoon near the back of a residence on
Tanglewood Dr. Upon officer approaching, the raccoon promptly fled and continued
to try to evade as officer followed it around the front and back of the
residence. The animal did appear as if it might be ill, possibly from something
it had eaten from garbage, but did not display typical signs of rabies. It was
clearly fearful of people which is not typical of raccoons that need to be put
down.
The raccoon fled into a small area of trees and brush prior to officer
departing. Officer informed numerous residents of my observations and requested

subjects had come over to the residence, despite the home owner, his ex
girlfriend, not wanting him to. She left the residence to get away from him, but

turned physical. It was reported that the two males then physically assaulted

bludgeon the victim in the head. Both males then reportedly fled the scene.

warrant out of the Columbiana County Sheriff 's Office and subsequently taken
into custody. She was transported to the police department where she provided a
statement about the incident and later transferred to the CCJ.

reported that the male subject had returned to the residence and entered through

located the subject hiding underneath a bean bag chair in the basement. The
