An altercation at a construction site on Westmoreland Road last week led to assault charges against a construction work who allegedly struck three co-workers.

Police also released a report about an Oct. 28 disturbance at a home in the Summer’s Walk neighborhood, where a domestic dispute resulted in assault charges, and led to discovery of a stolen handgun.

Meanwhile, police were out in force last week enforcing the speed limit on Griffith Street, among other places. Patrols issued 15 speeding tickets on the main route between downtown and I-77. And they’re continuing to watch for drivers ignoring stop signs on Jetton Street.
