Ten Booked in Ravenna as Police Blotter Spans Theft to Stalking Charge

Ravenna police booked ten people into the city jail between July 21 and July 27, according to booking records. Charges ranged from a stray animal complaint to a protective order violation. Disorderly Conduct Two separate disorderly conduct charges were filed during the week. One case involved fighting or threatening behavior on July 23. A second case, filed July 25, involved intoxication that created a risk of harm. Both charges fall under Ohio’s disorderly conduct statute. Menacing and Protection Order Violation A menacing by stalking charge was booked on July 24. The same person tied to the July 25 disorderly conduct charge also faced a violation of a protection order or consent agreement, booked the same day. That charge falls under the statute covering violations tied to Ohio’s civil stalking and sexual offense protection order laws. Open Liquor Container Two people were booked on July 26 for having an open liquor container in a public place. Ohio law prohibits consuming or possessing an open alcoholic beverage container in public spaces not licensed for consumption. Theft A theft charge was booked on July 21. Booking records do not specify the value or nature of the property involved. Animals Running at Large One person was cited and booked July 24 for animals running at large, a charge tied to loose or unrestrained animals within city limits. Warrant Arrests Two warrant arrests rounded out the week. One was booked July 21 on a misdemeanor warrant through the Ravenna Police Department. The other was booked July 24 on a misdemeanor warrant from another agency. All charges are allegations. Those booked are presumed innocent unless convicted in a court of law.
