CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (WV News) — A 55-year-old Clarksburg man fired shots in the direction of three individuals who confronted him early Monday morning about cutting off a catalytic converter on a car, a deputy has alleged.
Harrison County Deputy James McManus II charged David Todd Morrison with two felonies: Wanton endangerment involving a firearm and destruction of property.
Morrison acknowledged cutting off the catalytic converter to the 2015 Chevy Camaro, as well as firing a shot, McManus alleged.
Morrison also pointed the gun at the three individuals after shooting in their direction, the complaint alleged.
Morrison remained jailed Monday on a $10,000 10/90 bond set by Harrison Magistrate Kevin Renzelli.
Also:
— Harrison Circuit Judge James A. Matish revoked bond for Joshua Michael Romeo, 35, of Shinnston, on Monday and ordered Romeo held pending prosecution.
Assistant Prosecutor James Armstrong requested the revocation with incarceration, citing Romeo’s drug use — his drug test included fentanyl — while on bond. Defense attorney Ryan Shreve didn’t contest the bond revocation, but sought transfer of Romeo from jail to an inpatient treatment bed in Huntington.
Matish indicated he would weigh drug treatment if Romeo is convicted.
Presumed innocent, Romeo was indicted last month on charges of breaking and entering, conspiracy to commit breaking and entering, grand larceny and conspiracy to commit grand larceny.
Armstrong called one witness for Monday’s hearing: Probation Officer Matt Loar.
— Landon John Johnson, 39, has waived his probable cause hearing before Harrison Magistrate Kim Wygal.
Johnson is facing six sex-related charges in a case investigated by State Police Cpl. A.J. Trupo.
— Josh Campbell of Reynoldsville has been charged with felony forgery of a public record by Stonewood Patrol Officer R.G. Matheny.
During a traffic stop Feb. 9, Campbell forged his brother’s name on a traffic citation, Matheny alleged.
Magistrate Kevin Renzelli held the initial appearance.
— Ricky Robert Rosa of Clarksburg has been charged with felony third-offense driving on a license suspended or revoked for DUI.
Rosa drove unlawfully Sunday on West Pike Street in Clarksburg, Patrol Officer Elijah Helsley has alleged.
Renzelli held the initial appearance.
— Derion Tiove Terrell, 19, of Clarksburg, has waived his probable cause hearing before Harrison Magistrate Mike Weiss.
