Man faces 2 sex charges in investigation by Stonewood, West Virginia, Police

Jones, 38, was arrested Tuesday by Stonewood Police in the case investigated by Chief R.G. Matheny II.

Further details of the case are sealed under state law.

Jones has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent.

Also:

— The probable cause hearing has been postponed again for a woman facing a felony charge in a crash that injured a state road worker in a work zone.

The hearing for Kiley Michele Wagner, 45, first was set April 2. It was postponed to April 18, then to Wednesday, and now to May 23.

On the latest motion for postponement, Wagner’s lawyer, Zach Dyer, wrote that “additional time is needed for plea negotiations.”

With no objection from the state, Magistrate Mike Weiss granted the continuance. Weiss rescheduled the hearing for 9:30 a.m. May 23.

Wagner is free on a $5,000 10/90 bond on a charge of DUI causing serious injury. She has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent.

She would face 2 to 10 years of incarceration and a fine of $1,000 to $3,000 if convicted of DUI with serious injury.

Wagner “admitted to [police] that she had consumed alcohol, Clarksburg Patrol Officer N.A. Murphy alleged.

Subsequently, Clarksburg Police Sgt. L.A. McGlone reported that Wagner showed signs of impairment on field sobriety tests at the Police Department, according to Murphy. Wagner’s reading on a secondary chemical test was at .200%, according to Murphy, or 2 1/2 times greater than the legal limit to drive in West Virginia.

Police also took a blood sample, according to Murphy.

The worker was helping to clean up the area at the site of a previous wreck on U.S. 50 eastbound in Clarksburg when struck, according to authorities.

— Nicholas Edward Littleton, 36, of Meadowbrook, has pleaded guilty before Harrison Circuit Judge Thomas A. Bedell to felony escape.

The state dismissed a receiving stolen property charge as part of the plea deal.

Bedell ordered a presentence investigation, home incarceration investigation report and drug-and-alcohol assessment. The court set sentencing for 9 a.m. June 11.

As part of the plea agreement, Assistant Prosecutor Brad Pustolski will make no sentencing recommendation. Assistant Defender Mark Antos can request alternative sentencing.

Littleton escaped from where he’d been secured in a cruiser while law enforcement was investigating his alleged role in a theft case in the Gypsy area, according to State Police Sgt. K.H. Totten.

Trooper A.J. Trupo led the investigation.

— Jason Lindsay Dixon, 49, of Bridgeport, has waived his probable cause hearing before Harrison Chief Magistrate Frank DeMarco on a felony third-offense DUI charge.

Bridgeport Police Sgt. G.T. Collins charged Dixon following a traffic stop on Interstate 79 southbound in Bridgeport.

Bridgeport Pfc. J. Manson and Clarksburg Police assisted.

Dixon was convicted of DUI with injury July 30, 2015, in Harrison County Magistrate Court, and also pleaded guilty last Oct. 30 to DUI, according to Collins.

— Magistrate Weiss has issued a bench warrant for Christopher Lowell Hurst, 38, after Hurst didn’t appear for a probable cause hearing.

Hurst was arrested April 7 on a grand larceny charge. An individual posted a $5,000 surety bond on April 10, securing Hurst’s release.

The bond will be changed to cash only if/when Hurst is rearrested, Weiss ruled.
