Updated at 7:52 p.m.

MAN PUNCHED IN FACE, SUSTAINS SERIOUS INJURY

• A 26-year-old Centralia man is hospitalized with a possible broken eye socket and another man is jailed after an assault last night at the 1700 block of Big Hanaford Road outside Centralia. The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office says deputies responded about 9 p.m. to a dispute involving the pair as well as two women, ages 21 an 25. The disagreement was over a relationship and possible infidelity, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. The sheriff’s office concluded Michael Thorson, 34, from Bucoda, punched the victim; he was picked up a few hours later at his residence, according to Brown. Thorson was booked into the Lewis County jail for second-degree assault and felony harassment, Brown said. She indicated the victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Thorson was released today from the jail with no charges filed, pending further investigation.

MAN ARRESTED FOR “SPANKING” CHILD WITH CORD

• A 23-year-old Centralia man was interviewed and subsequently arrested yesterday for third-degree child assault in connection with an incident late last week in which the daughter of his significant other was left with bruises and marks on her bottom and legs from punishment administered with a cord, according to the Centralia Police Department. The incident and injuries to the pre-school aged girl were reported late Thursday night from the 100 block of Virginia Drive, according to police. Mario Vasquez was booked into the jail the following day for unspecified reasons, according to police. “It’s not spanking when you do it with a cord,” Sgt. Kurt Reichert said.

REMODEL NIGHTMARE

• Centralia police were called about 1 p.m. yesterday to a house being renovated on the 2800 block of Russell Road where someone had stolen copper plumbing pipes from beneath the structure.

THEFT

• Someone stole packages from the front of a home on the 100 block of F Street in Centralia, according to a report made to police yesterday morning.

VEGETABLES CASUALTY OF HIGHWAY WRECK

• The driver wasn’t injured but lost some of his load of corn when a semi truck landed on it side along state Route 6 west of Chehalis yesterday morning. Aid called about 7:10 a.m. to the scene found the westbound truck in the ditch, near Curtis Hill Road according to Lewis County Fire District 6. It was a slow speed incident, the vegetables spilled onto a field and the driver declined aid, Chief Tim Kinder said. The Washington State Patrol cited Jerry D. Foster, 51, of Curtis, for defective brakes and blamed the incident on inattention as Foster had tried to stop  his 1991 Freightliner for another vehicle on the roadway.

COLLISION AND HEART ATTACK

• A 62-year-old Winlock man was hospitalized after a wreck last night on Interstate 5 at Napavine in which responders found him in cardiac arrest.  Troopers and aid called about 11 p.m. to the northbound lanes near milepost 72 found John R. Boyer’s pickup truck had run into the left hand concrete barrier after striking the guard rail on the other side of the freeway, according to the Washington State Patrol. Firefighters from Lewis County Fire District 5, who had to force open one of the doors, conducted CPR and were able to get him back, Firefighter Brad Bozarth said. Boyer was taken by ambulance to Providence Centralia Hospital and then transferred to Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia, the state patrol reports. He did have minor injuries from the collision, Bozarth said. The Ford Ranger truck was described as totaled. A hospital spokesperson said this afternoon that Boyer passed away; enroute to the Olympia hospital, according to the state patrol.

    HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!! STILL???????????
    The dirtbag beat the daughter of his significant other…………women stop!!!!! Being in a relationship with someone rather than being alone is not the answer. Too many times we see this and it has to stop. I was in a relationship in the past where I helped raise my significant other’s children and even though the mom and I did not work out I am still in touch with the kids today many years later. It can work and scum bags like this give all “boyfriends” a bad name but holy crap ladies please look into the guy’s life a little before jumping into a live in relationship with them. Your kids come first!!!
