Repeated calls to a residence in Harlan Tuesday resulted in False Report complaints being filed by Harlan Police. Officials say officers were called to a residence in the 3000 block of 12th Street for a domestic disturbance. The officers determined the couple, Adam and April Gale, were simply arguing, and there was no abuse or assault. However, officers were called to the same home a total of three times during the same evening, and as a result, complaints charging the couple with false reports were filed with the Shelby County Clerk of Court.
