The Ross County Grand Jury has issued an indictment against a Columbus man on charges stemming from a stabbing. On January 11, Chillicothe Police responded to a stabbing at 188 East Water Street. The victim was taken to the hospital with multiple wounds to the stomach and forearm. The indictment alleges 37-year-old Ruben Reeves went to the home, got into an altercation with the victim, and then stabbed him. 

Reeves was later arrested in Columbus.

In another case, a Columbus woman was indicted for receiving stolen property.

She was able to give a description of a black Ford Explorer that was initially parked near her car, which fit the description of a vehicle used in a number of shoplifting incidents.

That vehicle was spotted and stopped by Chillicothe Police three days later. The victim's Social Security Card was reportedly found in the purse of passenger 30-year-old Maria Dilisio. The victim's purse and credit cards were also allegedly found near where Dilisio was sitting. 

Numerous stolen goods were reportedly found in the vehicle, and the driver was arrested on active warrants for thefts at Wal-Mart and Menards.

Dilisio has been indicted for a fifth-degree felony of receiving stolen property, which carries a penalty of 6-12 months in prison and a $2,500 fine.
