Among the most alarming incidents was a mugging Sunday night on an alley between South Main and Moore streets. Ronnie Newcom, 31, of Marion was on foot walking along the alley between a church and an apartment complex when he was attacked and robbed to by two men.
Authorities say that Newcom was beaten with a three-foot long club and robbed of $50. Newcom, who suffered arm injuries, was taken to Crittenden Hospital where he was treated and released.
