WAVE 3 TV Louisville, KY | Indiana town clerk resigns after charges filed
Member Center:
LAKEVILLE, IN (AP) - An Indiana town official who was jailed on accusations he beat his girlfriend has resigned. A judge issued an arrest warrant for Lakeville Clerk-Treasurer Casey Grove after he skipped arraignment on charges of battery and residential entry. He surrendered Oct. 3 and remained jailed one week later. Prosecutors say the 30-year-old attacked his 20-year-old girlfriend after finding her in bed with another man at the man's South Bend home. Grove announced the resignation Monday when he appeared without a lawyer at a hearing on whether to issue a permanent order preventing him from conducting town business. Grove was elected in 2007. Lakeville is about 10 miles south of South Bend. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
