Shovel Wielded in Norcade Circle Argument, Department Says

A 19-year-old man was arrested Friday evening on Norcade Circle after arguing with a woman, kicking in her door and swinging a shovel at her, the crime log states.

Ranell Edwards was arrested on assault and vandalism charges, according to the department. After arguing with the woman, he kicked in her door, the department said. She picked up a golf club to protect herself, but Edwards broke it with the shovel, the crime log states. He then smashed the woman's car windshield with the shovel before tossing it in an adjacent yard, according to the crime log.

Edwards also had a warrant out for his arrest for allegedly failing to appear for a jaywalking court date. His bail is set at $50,465, and he is due in court Thursday.
