Adair County Sheriff Jeff Vandewater reports six arrests took place from June 24th through the 30th. As we mentioned Monday, a man from Greenfield was arrested on a warrant with regard to an assault. 29-year old Steven David Armstead, was taken into custody for Willful Injury/Serious Injury, a Class-C felony, and Assault with intent to commit harm (an aggravated misdemeanor). The charges are with regard to incidents that occurred June 30th, where Armstead allegedly attacked a man who came to his house to retrieve some personal items for his girlfriend. Armstead allegedly put the man in a restraint, or choke hold. He also allegedly struck a woman in the face twice, with a brick, causing serious injury. Amstead initially refused to come out of the house when authorities showed up, but later surrendered without incident. He was brought to the Adair County Jail and released Sunday on a $4,000 cash or surety bond.

At around 11:35-p.m. Saturday, 28-year old Samantha Lynn Bell, of Greenfield, was arrested for simple Assault, after allegedly coming at another woman with a broomstick. The incident took place at the same residence whee Armstead was arrested earlier in the day. Bell was released Sunday on a $300 cash/surety bond.

On June 28th, 45-year old Holly Jolene Nadolsky, of Adair, was arrested for Public Intoxication, following numerous calls about a woman walking down Interstate 80 near the Adair Exit (mile marker 75), at around 11:50-p.m. She was located about 15-minutes later by an Iowa State Patrol Trooper, as the woman was walking eastbound. Nadolsky had a breath alcohol content (BAC) of .013. When asked why she was walking on the Interstate, the woman explained she was suicidal, and wanted to jump in front of a truck. She was brought to the Adair County Memorial Hospital before being transported to the jail, where she was placed on suicide watch. Nadolsky was advised after being released on a $300 bond, later to seek professional help due to her multiple suicidal comments.
