Sharyn’s Sirens: Daily police and fire roundup

FROM THE COURTHOUSE

• Prosecutors told a judge today they’d like to postpone the murder trial for 30-year-old Centralian Weston G. Miller, because they are still waiting for some results from test conducted by the state patrol crime lab. It was set to start next week in Lewis County Superior Court but is now scheduled for the week of May 6. Miller is charged with first-degree murder for the March 13, 2012 fatal shooting of his house guest, 43-year-old David Wayne Carson. Last week, Miller pleaded guilty to four counts of second-degree unlawful possession of a firearm that grew out of the same investigation – to clear up some issues before trial, his attorney said.

RAPE AREST

• Deputies arrested a 26-year-old Winlock man yesterday for third-degree rape. They were told by a Chehalis woman she’d met up with a friend at a local tavern the previous night, went out with him to a few more bars and they were taken by back to his home in Winlock, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. The woman said she awoke to Nathan A. L. Hope having sex with her, without her consent, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. Hope was booked into the Lewis County Jail.

CHAPEL BURGLARY

• Deputies were called to a Chehalis area church last night where someone had forced their way into its chapel and left with an amplifier and a Fender precision bass guitar, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. A man who had been doing repair work at Dayspring Baptist Church on the 2000 block of Jackson Highway with his brother said they’d left about 1 p.m. and returned about 5 p.m. when they discovered the burglary, according to the sheriff’s office.

WIRE THEFT

• Someone stole wiring from a storage building on the 500 block of South Tower Avenue in Centralia, according to a report made to police yesterday morning.

GADREN TOOL, FUEL STOLEN

• Police were called to the 1900 block of South Market Boulevard in Chehalis yesterday where someone had pried the padlock on a businesses’ storage building and left with an old weed eater. Gasoline was also siphoned from a box truck, according to the Chehalis Police Department.

CAR PROWL

• Someone got inside an unlocked vehicle at the 1600 block of South Market Boulevard in Chehalis and stole the stereo and some paperwork, according to a report made to police yesterday morning.

ILLEGAL WEAPON

• Centralia police confiscated a sawed off shotgun yesterday from a female at the 1200 block of Alder Street when contacting her on another matter. A shotgun with a barrel shorter than 18 inches is illegal, unless one possesses a special permit, according to the Centralia Police Department. The case is being referred to the prosecutor for a possible charge, Sgt. Kurt Reichert said. This gun was literally sawed shorter, Reichert said.

VANDALISM

• Centralia police responded to a residence in the 1200 block of Rhobina Street just after 2 p.m. yesterday where a window was broken, possibly by a BB, according to the Centralia Police Department.

AND MORE

• And as usual, other incidents such fender benders, arrests for warrant, misdemeanor assault, misdemeanor theft … and more.
