Tuesday Sheriff's Beat

A local teenager was jailed Monday in lieu of a $100,000 bond after his arrest on rape and lewd molestation charges.

Cherokee County Chief Investigator Jason Chennault arrested Daryl Eugene Case, 17, for two counts of lewd molestation and a count of first-degree rape. Formal charges are expected to be filed in district court against Case, who was previously certified to stand trial as an adult. His alleged victims are 14 and 15 years old. Special District Judge Sandy Crosslin set the bond after reading Chennault’s probable cause affidavit.

In an unrelated matter, deputies are investigating the alleged theft of seven head of cattle from Johnny Bucket’s property in Qualls. The theft was discovered Monday when the owner returned home. Anyone with information should contact the sheriff’s office at 456-2583.

David Bailey reported the theft of some bulls on March 21. Some were being held in Nowata, and others were taken in Cherokee County.

Matthew Jones filed a report Saturday, alleging thieves took a 12-gauge shotgun, a 30-30 rifle and a 10-22 rifle.

Darrel Shaver told deputies Sunday that Tulsa World paper boxes at Snake Creek and Chicken Creek were damaged and money was removed.

Jess Philpott told deputies on March 21 that vandals shot through a door glass at his home.

Laneal Lowe said 28 PlayStation 2 games were taken from her home March 16.

Zack Smith filed a report Saturday, stating someone took some Actiq Fentanyl Citrate suckers. A medical Web site, www.cancer.org, states Actiq contains fentanyl citrate and is a powerful painkiller given to cancer patients. The medicine is on a stick and dissolves in the mouth within 15 minutes. The site also states it could be fatal to children and adults not already taking narcotic therapy.
