Jarrells Fined for Felonious Assault in Bren-ton
Morton Jarrells of Keyrock, 35, was fined 10 dollars plus 10.50 costs by Magistrate Bernard Morgan on a felonious assault charge. Merrill Ball, 30, also of Keyrock, had filed the assault charge against Jarrells, which was dismissed as Jarrells had gone into Ball’s home to start trouble. Ball was arrested earlier and posted 500 dollars bond for today’s appearance. The dispute over a car title led to blows with a wrench and a shovel during the altercation. Jarrells remained jailed in default of bond. Ball retained the car while Jarrells still holds the title.
