Deputy Bill Browning of the Boone County Sheriff’s Department recently filed a complaint in magistrate court charging a Seth man with child abuse related offenses.
Browning alleged that on New Year’s Eve, Greg Runion was at his sister’s home on Sand Lick Road in Seth when he reportedly became intoxicated. The complaint said Runion "became very aggressive and eventually physically attacked a fifteen-year old male juvenile by getting him into a headlock and shoving him around."
Browning charged Runion with child abuse creating a risk of injury, which is a felony offense. West Virginia Criminal Code states that "any person who abuses a child and by the abuse creates a substantial risk of serious injury or of death is guilty of a felony, and upon conviction shall be fined not more than $3,000 and confined for not less than no more than five years."

Goodwin said that during an interview with the man, Bias admitted he had taken the bow and sold it in order to get enough money to buy approximately 80 oxycontin painkillers. The complaint stated that the bow and attached accessories was valued at over $1,000.
Bias was charged with entering without breaking, which, according to the complaint, is a felony offense.
