James R. Ferrier
ORWIGSBURG - A Cressona man faces Schuylkill County Court action after waiving his right to a preliminary hearing Tuesday on charges he threatened and harassed a Schuylkill Haven woman in October at her residence.
Charals Schrader, 19, of 37 Grove St., must defend against charges of terroristic threats and harassment. Magisterial District Judge James R. Ferrier bound over those charges for court after Schrader waived his right to a hearing.
Schuylkill Haven borough police alleged that Schrader threatened and harassed Catlin Killian at 10:45 a.m. Oct. 3 at her 426 Dock St. residence.
Police said Schrader, who was staying with Killian, pushed her against a wall, causing her to hit her head.
Later, Schrader telephoned Killian, who had called law enforcement, and threatened to kill her, according to police.
Schrader is free on $2,500 straight cash bail pending further court action in the case.
Other defendants whose cases Ferrier considered on Tuesday, the charges against each person and the judge's dispositions of the matters included:
