Sheriff’s deputies in Adams County arrested a woman on an assault charge at around 4:50-p.m., Wednesday. Authorities say 30-year old Katherine Coleman, of Corning, entered the Adams County Sheriff’s Office and said that her mother was dying at their residence.

Deputies then responded to 406 10th Street in Corning, and upon further investigation, found no one was dying, but that an assault had occurred. Coleman was arrested on a charge of Domestic Abuse Assault. She was transported to the Adams County Jail and held pending an appearance before the magistrate.
