Updated at 7:45 p.m.

HOSPITAL ASSAULT

• A 35-year-old Chehalis woman was arrested yesterday evening after she allegedly punched a nurse at Providence Centralia Hospital. An officer called just after 6 p.m. arrested Judith M. Fenning for third-degree assault and booked her into the Lewis County Jail, according to the Centralia Police Department. A department spokesperson said he thought Fenning was a patient, but wasn’t sure of the details that led to her upset.

BREAK-IN DOOR OF HOME

• Video surveillance images led to an arrest yesterday after someone damaged a door at a home on the 700 block of Salzer Valley Road in Centralia. A deputy called to the residence after the victim arrived home found footprints in the snow and saw security images of a red sedan, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. An investigation led to the boyfriend of the car’s owner, who was located working on the car on Nix Lane, according to the sheriff’s office. The deputy recognized Jefferey A. Petrich as the person in the video, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. Petrich was arrested for malicious mischief and residential burglary and booked into the Lewis County Jail, according to Brown. Nothing was stolen but the damage amounted to about $400, Brown said.

BROKEN WINDOW AT HOTEL

• A deputy was called to the Packwood Inn about 11:30 p.m. last night where the manager said she heard glass breaking and discovered someone had busted out the front door window. The repairs at the business on the 13000 block of U.S. Highway 12 will cost about $900, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office.

DRIVING MISHAP

• Nobody was hurt when a 101-year-old driver ran into a building yesterday on the 2500 block of Northeast Kresky Avenue in Chehalis. Detective Sgt. Gary WIlson said he understood the damage at Dels Farm Supply was not too severe.

VANDALISM

• Centralia police took a report about 9:30 a.m. yesterday regarding someone throwing a rock through a back window of a business on the 500 block of South Tower Avenue during the night.

BARN FIRE OAKVILLE

• Five fire departments battled a barn fire in Oakville last night and managed to save structures just  few feet away on either side. Grays Harbor County Fire District 1 responded about 11 p.m. to the blaze on the 1500 block of South Bank Road found the barn fully engulfed in flames, according to Firefighter Shawn Burdett. The nearest fire hydrant was a 12 mile round trip which required them to request mutual aid from others, including Riverside Fire Authority, according to Burdett. A county crew assisted by laying sand on the roads which began to ice up, Burdett said. No cattle were injured. The 50-foot by 90-foot barn was a total loss.

AND MORE

• And as usual, other incidents such as arrests for warrants, driving under the influence, driving with suspended license; responses for alarm, disputes, shoplifting, hit and run, counterfeit bill … and more.
