Sharyn’s Sirens: Daily police and fire roundup

BIG OOPS

• Police were called to a home on the 100 block of Second Street in Morton when a couple returned home shortly after 1 o’clock in the morning to find a stranger passed out on their living room floor. They woke him up and told him to sit on the couch while they called police, which he did, according to the Morton Police Department. Chief Dan Mortensen said the 52-year-old Tacoma man had been drinking and was trying to get to his motel when he entered the home. It happened early Sunday morning. An officer removed David W. Ross from the residence, cited him for criminal trespass and directed him to his proper lodging, according to the chief.

ASSAULT

• A 24-year-old Longview man was arrested in Randle yesterday for second-degree assault for allegedly putting his older brother into a headlock until he couldn’t breathe while the pair were at a convenience store on the 100 block of U.S. Highway 12 on Sunday evening, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. When he was detained, Johnathon R. Fisher was found to be in possession of syringes, a pipe and suspected heroin so he was booked for a drug violation as well as assault  according to the sheriff’s office.
