Hearing for Yerage rescheduled


New Castle News

A preliminary hearing for New Castle School Board member Peter Yerage has been continued.


Yerage, 65, of Warren Avenue, was charged with possession of a controlled substance, a misdemeanor. State police filed the charges after a truck, in which Yerage was a passenger, had been pulled over and the vehicle was inspected.

Officers said they had located a pill bottle with methadone and oxycodone. The bottle, which was in a bag with toiletry items, was found on the passenger’s side floor, according to the police report.

A continuance was granted because Yerage’s attorney, Paul Lynch, is out of town. The new hearing date is July 15.
