Sheriff’s officials in Pottawattamie County say a search warrant executed Friday at 211 Court Street, in Harlan during a Theft investigation, resulted in the arrest of 35-year old William Joseph Bullock, of Harlan. Bullock was taken into custody at around 11-a.m. on a Pott. County warrant for Violation of a No Contact Order. He was brought to the Pott. County Jail and booked-in.

At around 2:25-a.m. Saturday, Sheriff’s Deputies in Pottawattamie County arrested 35-year old Nicholas Jon Edison, of Crescent, for Aggravated assault. The arrest was the result of a call to a residence in the 800 block of Valley Drive in Crescent, following a reported disturbance. Edison allegedly assaulted his 39-year old girlfriend, causing apparent, minor injury. Alcohol was believed to be a contributing factor toward the incident.

And, at around 9:40-p.m. Saturday, 57-year old Joel Leon Peters, of Council Bluffs, was arrested for Violation of a No Contact and/or Protective Order. Peters was taken into custody after Pott. County Deputies were called to a residence in the 600 block of Oakland Avenue, in Oakland, for a report of a possible wanted subject who was in the residence, “hanging out” with another male in the living room. Deputies arrived on the scene and spoke with Peters, who knew he was wanted on a warrant for his arrest. Authorities noted Peters was somewhat confrontational during their initial contact with him, but was transported to the Pott. County Jail and booked-in without incident.
