Wood County Sheriff’s Department activities for the past week included:

Dec. 13 – A report of an assault by a mother of her 11-year-old son at a residence on County Road 1326 in the Quitman area is under investigation. A man reported his estranged wife kicked open the door to his house, picked up their son by his arms and threw him on the floor and took his cellphone.

Dec. 11 – Several items were reported as missing from a woman’s home on Highway 37 in Quitman. THE woman said after a co-worker and her boyfriend stayed at her house while she was gone, an Xbox 360, gun and money were missing. The coworker and her boyfriend said they didn’t take the items and the matter is being investigated.

Dec. 9 – Deputy Melissa Pollard and Sergeant Donivan South arrested Glen Lee McGill, 53, Quitman on an out-of-county warrant as well as an assault charge. His estranged wife reported he showed up at her house wanting to stay and then punched her in the mouth. He was found hiding at a neighbor’s house in a bathtub.

Deputies were called to a residence on CR 2320 where a woman and her boyfriend were arguing. She said they were wrestling over a cellphone when he struck her on the side of her face. There was no evidence, another person at the scene couldn’t corroborate the report and the boyfriend said he just wanted to gather his things and live so the case is closed.
