News Herald Arrest Report

Philadelphia man chokes, drags woman
 
A Philadelphia man was arrested Thursday after attempting to choke a local woman.

Loudon County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Skylar Mills responded March 16 to a home on Sunnyside Road where he met a woman in distress. She told Mills that Noah Charles Simpson, 23, who lives in the home, had physically assaulted her earlier in the day.

The woman said Simpson came home smelling like marijuana. She said she was trying to take care of Simpson’s children when he became “displeased” with how she was talking to them. Simpson told the woman he had dreamed about killing her when he was young, Mills wrote in a report.

The woman said Simpson got in her face and began to yell like a “drill sergeant.” The woman was in fear of her life and tried to grab her phone to record Simpson’s behavior, according to a report.

Simpson grabbed the woman’s arms and took her to the ground. He then put his hands around the woman’s neck, dragged her into the bedroom and began to strangle her. Simpson eventually released the woman and went outside, and the woman locked the doors and called the law enforcement.

The woman said she was afraid one of Simpson’s “minions” would come “shoot up the house.” She said Simpson had been hanging out with some “very bad kids,” Mills wrote in a report.

Simpson was found later Thursday and arrested on warrants including kidnapping and assault charges. He was charged with domestic assault-felony and kidnapping and released on $15,000 bond.

Man drives car into house
 

A Loudon man was arrested Saturday for vandalism and domestic assault after driving his truck into the side of a house.

LCSO Deputy Austin Parton responded to a call of an unwanted guest at a home on Corinth Road. While on his way to the scene, dispatch told Parton the suspect, Clifford Frank Green, 51, was armed with a gun.

Parton met Green, who was sitting in a camper. Parton asked Green to step out of the camper, but he refused. Parton removed Green from the camper and detained him while he gathered information about the day’s events, according to a report.
Parton spoke to the homeowner and a witness who told Parton that Green came inside the house earlier in the morning and grabbed the homeowner’s wrist. The homeowner told Green to let go. Parton observed bruising on the homeowner’s wrist consistent with the story.
The homeowner and witness told Parton that Green was in his truck and drove it up to the porch and rammed it into the side of the house. Parton could see tire marks leading up to the porch and a dented rail barrel. The homeowner told Parton he wanted Green arrested.

Green was charged with domestic assault-misdemeanor and vandalism and held on $2,000 bond.
