Police: Man broke into house, battered woman

FRUITDALE — A Brown County man is facing more charges after showing up at the home of a relative who has a no-violent-contact order against him.

Anthony Callon, 38, of East Hornettown Road, was charged April 9 with battery resulting in bodily injury, invasion of privacy and criminal mischief, all misdemeanors.

Police were called to a home on Hornettown Road at about 5 p.m. April 6, on a report of Callon pushing and yelling at a woman. Morgantown officers responded because Brown County Sheriff’s Deputy Mike Moore was on the south end of the county.

Moore’s report said that Morgantown officers found Callon outside the home, and that he refused to follow directions and attempted to leave. Officers took him into custody by using “open hand/take down and restraints,” and Callon threw an object while officers were attempting to stop him, the report said. That object was later determined to be a knife, the report said.

Moore arrived on scene at 5:22 p.m. and talked to the resident of the home. She told him that Callon had been living in Martinsville at a men’s shelter, but that day he had broken into the house and started to yell at her and shove her, and tried to get her cellphone, the report said.

She told the officer that she didn’t want him arrested, as he is getting ready to go on trial for a previous battery against her. She said she just wanted him to get help.

In the patrol car, Callon thrashed and attempted to bite the seat belt, and kept kicking the front passenger seat, Moore wrote. He called for the jail car with the cage, and Callon was transferred into it at the Bean Blossom overlook for the rest of his ride to the jail, the report said.

At the jail, he was checked out by EMS for shoulder and arm pain, but refused further treatment, the report said.
