More information has been released concerning the withdrawal of charges against a Creekside man in a case of false imprisonment in Clymer.
On January 3rd, police withdrew two counts each of unlawful restraint, false imprisonment and harassment against 61-year-old Troy D. Graham, who was originally implicated in the incident back on December 12th. Police say that one of the two victims involved was a locksmith and employed to change the locks on the house on Franklin Street when he and a neighbor went into the house through a rear basement door. While they were both in the basement, police believed that Graham had closed the doors and locked them from the outside.
Since the initial filing of charges, the investigation has continued and charges have now been filed against 57-year-old Thomas E. Jennings of Clymer, who police have named as the primary suspect. He now faces the six charges that were originally filed against Graham. Clymer police say the investigation is ongoing, and Graham could still face charges.
