Grand Jury Indictments

After a recent session of the Ottawa County Grand Jury, indictments have now been returned against the following individuals, according to Prosecuting Attorney Mark Mulligan:

Chad Tracy, 23, Perrysburg, has been indicted on one count of Burglary, a felony of the second degree, and one count each of Theft and Receiving Stolen Property, both felonies of the fifth degree. According to reports of the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office, Tracy entered an Allen Township residence in March, taking over $500.00 worth of property from the owner.

Daniel Davenport, 30, whose last known address is Curtice, and Darin Kirchner, 32, whose last known address is Wisconsin, have each been charged with multiple counts of Criminal Nonsupport, all felonies of the fifth, degree after allegedly failing to provide court ordered child support for their respective minor dependents. Davenport has been indicted on four counts Kirchner has been indicted on eight counts.

Rudd Summers, 35, whose last known address is Sandusky, was indicted on one count each of Passing Bad Checks and Theft, both felonies of the fifth degree, after he allegedly wrote a bad check to a Danbury Township business in July.

A summons has been issued for Kirchner to make his initial appearance in the Ottawa County Court of Common Pleas on October 1,2009. Warrants have been issued for all other defendants.

Mulligan noted that an indictment is merely a formal charge in the Common Pleas Court, and does not denote guilt or innocence.
