POMEROY - The Meigs County Sheriff's Office charged a Meigs County woman early Friday in a shooting that injured two people.
The sheriff's office also arrested four people on drug-related charges in a separate case.
Sheriff Robert E. Beegle said Tania Crawford, 48, of Dexter Road, Langsville, Ohio, was arrested on two counts of felonious assault in an incident about midnight Friday on Meigs County 10 in front of her residence.
According to reports, a vehicle was on the road and Crawford was in her yard when the vehicle stopped and she allegedly opened fire, striking two of the four people in the vehicle. The vehicle continued approximately a mile to the next residence where the occupants stopped for help and emergency services were called.
The driver of the car, Joshua Price, 19, no address, received two gunshot wounds and a female juvenile was wounded in the leg.
Crawford was arraigned Friday in Meigs County Court on the felonious assault charges and was released on $10,000 bond.
The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation was called to process the shooting scene. No further information was available Friday from officials.
In the other case, Beegle reported his department's Major Crime Unit executed search warrants Thursday night in the Dexter area, the result of a two-month drug investigation.
Officers arrested Melvin Duff, 61, of Old Dexter Road and Robin Roberts-Duff, 57, of the same address on third-degree felony charges of drug trafficking, possession and cultivation of marijuana. Officers also arrested Jonathon Runyon, 21, and Teresa Fahey, 19, both of Old Dexter Road, on charges of endangering children.
All four appeared in Meigs County Court Friday on the charges and were released on bond.
One of the search warrants resulted in the discovery of an indoor grow operation with more than 100 marijuana plants being hydroponically grown. The agencies involved in the investigation included the Meigs County Sheriff's Office, Gallia County Sheriff's Office, the Ohio Division of Natural Resources and the Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney's Office.
