Steubenville Police

Where's the adult: A woman in the 1200 block of Lincoln Avenue told police her two daughters got into an argument with two kids across the street, Sunday. She said it was strictly verbal, but then the father of one of the girls across the street arrived from Mingo Junction and began yelling at her kids so their older brother and his friend yelled back. The father of the other girl then said he would fight them, but he left the area. Police spoke with all the kids and told them to stay away from each other. They also spoke with the father, telling him to stay away.

Could have ended badly: A man gave police a semi-automatic pistol he found on the ground in the 200 block of South Sixth Street, Sunday. He said he saw it in the street directly across from the side door of Club 106 earlier in the morning but continued to a Sunset Boulevard eatery to get two large drinks and drove past again to see if it was still there. The gun was loaded with a shell in the chamber, and he said he tried to make it safe but couldn't. Police did that for him, then locked it in their evidence locker.

Scary: A city resident told police someone was trying to kick in her back door, Sunday. Police said they found shoe prints and dents on the back door as well as the frame near the lock being broken.

Charged: Damon Irizarry. 47, no fixed address, theft and violation of a no contact order, Sunday. Irizarry allegedly took a bottle of iced tea from Family Dollar without paying, then sat on the curb outside another store drinking it.

Booked: Tenell Harris, 28, Steubenville, assault, Sunday. Police responded to the 400 block of South Fifth Street after a hang-up call. Once there, Harris told them another woman has been saying things about her and when she went to confront her, the two of them started fighting so she went over to the other woman's car and began punching her. Police told her the other woman had facial injuries and wanted to purse charges, so Harris was booked into jail without bond.

A man apparently overdosed in the 100 block of North Fourth Street, Sunday. Steubenville firefighters/EMS revived the man with Narcan, but once he was alert he denied taking any drugs.

Good catch: A man was spotted lying in the grass in the 700 block of North Sixth Street, Sunday. He told police he was having a medical emergency and needed assistance, so they called for an ambulance.

Angry man: A woman who was at Belleview Park told police a man known to her had "punched her in the face and sent her into a seizure," Sunday.

The right side of the victim's face was red and swollen.
