On the Record
Danielsville man charged with battery
A Danielsville man was
arrested after he allegedly
struck his 20-year old stepson
during an argument at their
home last week.
Steven Lavem Shelnut, 44,
605 Roger's Mill Road, was
charged with one count each of
simple battery FVA and crimi
nal trespass.
According to the incident
report, Deputy James Reavis
responded to the scene where
Shelnut’s stepson told him
that Shelnut had “got in his
face” then pushed him into a
truck and threw an object into
the truck breaking a window.
Shelnut had left the residence
when Reavis arrived, but
came walking back down the
driveway after he left. Deputy
Reavis then returned to the
scene, where he found Shelnut
lying on the floor of the house
with scratches all over his body
and a strong smell of alcohol.
Mr. Shelnut said he had con
sumed “only a few beers” and
denied the whole incident with
his stepson. He said he received
the scratches from getting in
briars.
Shelnut was transported to
the Madison County Jail.

Assault reported
on East Paoli Road
A family violence warrant for battery has been issued for a
Carlton man after his wife reported that he assaulted her.
According to the incident report, the warrant was issued for
Eddie Hicks, 277 East Paoli Road, after his wife came to the
sheriff’s office on March 22 claiming that Hicks had assaulted
her at their East Paoli Road home on March 19.
Deputy Matt Pilkington met with the woman, who said that
Hicks had put a knife to her throat while they were sitting in the
car waiting for the kids to get off the school bus. She pushed
the knife away and he then allegedly struck her in the face with
his fist and his forearm.
Deputy Pilkington noted that she had bruising on her right
eye and left forehead. The victim also stated that Hicks had told
her to leave earlier that day (March 22) and that she refused.
