STEUBENVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Authorities in Ohio report another attack on an
Amish man whose hair and beard were cut.
Jefferson County Sheriff Fred Abdalla says the elderly man was attacked
Wednesday while visiting his son in a community that's home to five suspects
charged in an earlier beard-cutting attack linked to religious differences.
The sheriff tells media outlets in Steubenville that the Ashland County man
had been invited to visit his son. Abdalla warned the son in advance that he
didn't want trouble.
The sheriff says the victim approached him after the attack and said he was
scared and upset but would not press charges.
Cutting the hair or beard would be considered insulting among Amish.
Authorities in Carroll, Holmes and Trumbull counties are investigating
similar alleged attacks. |
