GP Police Jailed Corrections Client for Probation Violation after Scuffle at Motel
Grants Pass Police jailed a Josephine Community Corrections client with a history of threatening behavior for fighting with his mother's boyfriend at a local motel last week.
The Police Department reports officers arrested 23-year-old Raymond Robert Lee Amos for the incident at Hawks Inn Motel on NW 6th Street early Friday morning.
Police said a man called 9-1-1 to report that he was assaulted by his girlfriend's son whom he identified as "Raymond Amos."
Upon arrival, officers determined that Amos was the aggressor as he threw a lighter at the man for making fun of him, which started a scuffle between the two. They said nothing rose to the level of physical injury and the man did not wish to pursue charges.
However, Amos was wanted on a Grants Pass warrant for two counts of failing to appear in court for Menacing and his corrections officer requested his client be detained due to the incident.
Amos was lodged at the Josephine County Jail on the warrant plus the resulting Probation Violation related to a past arrest for Menacing.
