POLKTON — At 2:32 p.m., Deputy Galvan received a call through dispatch from a victim of unwanted landscaping services. According to the victim, the unwanted landscaping involved the felling of several trees on the victim’s property, even ones marked “no trespassing.” The damage extends approximately 25 ft. into the victim’s property. Checking with her neighbor to see if they may have witnessed the destruction, the victim learned the trees in question were scratching the sides of semi trucks from Pilgrim Farms as they passed and so the victim’s neighbor said “We had to cut them down.” The case is active.

Deputy Mullis found the car located in a wooded area, about twenty-five yards off a hunting trail.

POLKTON — At 2:29 a.m., while out on patrol, Sgt. Mario Kobersy observed a black 2024 Volkswagen Jetta parked with its engine running outside the back door of a gas station on US Hwy. 74 West. Cautiously approaching the vehicle, Sgt. Kobersy heard loud music emanating from the vehicle and noticed what appeared to be vomit puddled outside the driver’s door. When Sgt. Kobersy knocked on the driver’s tinted window, the driver turned down his music and agreed to roll the window down for Sgt. Kobersy to perform a wellness check. With the window now rolled down, he was able to observe the handle of a firearm in the driver’s lap. Realizing the driver, identified as Kyjuan Walls, was armed, Sgt. Kobersy called for backup, took the firearm from the driver’s lap, and placed it on the hood of the car. When Walls stepped out of the vehicle, Sgt. Kobersy caught the whiff of alcohol on his breath. Deputy White, responding to Kobersy’s call for backup, located another firearm in the passenger side of the vehicle that Walls failed to disclose to Sgt. Kobersy when asked if he had any additional firearms or weapons in the vehicle. An open bottle of liquor was found nestled between the driver’s seat and center console. Both firearms were found to not be registered and Mr. Wall is not a felon. Once transported to the Magistrate’s Office, Wall vomited again before passing out due to his severe alcohol intoxication. Magistrate Thomas found probable cause to charge Wall with Possession of a Concealed Firearm, and Possession of a Concealed Firearm While Under the Influence of Alcohol. Refusing a breathalyzer test, Wall was arrested and remanded to the Anson County Jail under a $2,000 bond. Case closed by arrest.

Upon arrival, Deputy Galvan determined the trash to have all escaped from a white trash bag dumped on the ground. Finding boxes, prescription bags, and a debit card included in the litter, Deputy Galvan had a name and address to follow up with. Once he arrived at the residence whose address was on the mail found spilling out of the dumped trash bag, Deputy Galvan was unable to get anyone to come to the door. Speaking with a neighbor of the suspected litterbug, he stated to Deputy Galvan that he knows the suspect has someone take his trash to the dump every 2 weeks. The case is active.
MARSHVILLE — At 3:17 p.m., Deputy Galvan spoke with a female victim who stated she is receiving threats from her husband. Apparently, the victim’s husband was upset she did not attend church due to car troubles that the husband was allegedly aware of. While the victim was at a family member’s house, the husband called to express his anger, reportedly saying in the hearing of both the victim and her family member that “I know where you are, you…, I’m going to …. you up, you lying…” Case is closed by exception.

The value of the snack is unknown.
