Students suspended for fighting

youngstown

Two students at a city alternative school were suspended for 10 days for fighting. A police officer used a Taser on a 15-year-old boy to stop him from fighting.

The officer, who was working at Redirection School, Hudson Avenue, heard a disturbance coming from the school’s lunchroom about 11 a.m. Monday.

The officer saw two students fighting with the principal holding onto one and a teacher trying to pull the other student back.

The 15-year-old boy was trying to kick and get loose to continue fighting, so the officer used a Taser to stop him, police said.

Man wanted on bigamy charge

Police issued two warrants for a 33-year-old Pennsylvania man accused of marrying two women.

Arrest warrants have been filed for Donald G. Meyers Jr. of Ellwood City, Pa., on charges of falsification and bigamy. Both are misdemeanor offenses.

On Jan. 13, a 30-year-old woman from Harmony, Pa., told police she married Meyers on March 5, 2004, in New Brighton, Pa., and that the two are still married. Police said the woman recently learned that her husband had married a 28-year-old woman at Forever Yours Wedding Chapel, 1714 Boardman-Poland Road.

A copy of the marriage-license application from Mahoning County Probate Court shows that Meyers answered that he had never been previously married.
