Mother arrested

YOUNGSTOWN

A 42-year-old Milton Street woman was arrested Saturday night at her home on charges of felonious assault and domestic violence after her son told police she tried to stab him with an 8-inch kitchen knife.

The boy, whose age was not given, said he and his mother, Belinda P. Davis, had an argument about 9:30 p.m. over a family matter.

Davis then told the boy she was going to stab him, swung the knife over her head and brought it down on the boy, but he was able to catch her arm and stop the knife, police said.

Davis then tried to grab the boy’s neck, but he also bent that arm down and disarmed her, he told police.

Police arrested a 14-year-old boy Sunday evening after police chased him and a second male in a stolen car on the city’s East Side.

A police officer first noticed a stolen teal-colored Land Rover on Bennington Avenue and gave chase about 5:30 p.m. Officers chased the vehicle all over the East Side, including Hubbard Road, Lansdowne Boulevard and Atkinson Avenue.

The males eventually bailed out of the car at a dead end on Commonwealth Avenue about five minutes later. The second male was not located.

Disorderly conduct

WARREN

A 54-year-old Chestnut Street Northeast man was charged with disorderly conduct and taken to an area hospital for evaluation Sunday morning after a woman living in his apartment building reported that he had threatened to kill her with a machete.

The woman said Paul L. Krause, of 339 Chestnut Street, is her upstairs neighbor and was apparently off his medication when he entered her apartment and threatened her about 8:20 a.m.

The woman was not injured and did not want to file charges, police said.

However, Krause was arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct outside the apartment not obeying police commands, police said.
