Police Reports: Man Stabbed at Local Bar

Man Stabbed at Local Bar

According to the police report on Nov. 11, two brothers, Zachary and Joseph Pounds, ages 20 and 23, of Ellwood, caused a disturbance at Weisz’s Hazel Manor Bar on North St. The report states the brothers were in the dining room area of the bar ordering food when the younger brother, Zachary, got up and walked around the bar yelling profound and racist obscenities at a man before taking a beer bottle and hitting the unsuspecting individual over the head. The victim fell to the floor and was further attacked by the same brother, now with a knife, resulting in a large stab wound to the victims right arm. The victim was life-flighted to Allegheny General Hospital to receive appropriate treatment for his injuries. Two bystanders claimed they tried to break up the fight and while doing so were also assaulted by Zachary; eventually they did manage to push the troublemaker out of the bar. The bartender stated that during the chaos, the older brother, Joseph, was throwing chairs around and he threw a mixed drink in the face of the bar owner. Charges against the two males are currently pending.

Fake Doctor Calls in Script from Connecticut

According to the police report, on Nov. 15 the CVS Pharmacy in Ellwood reported a suspicious prescription call-in. A pharmacist on duty claimed that a “doctor” called the pharmacy stating he was from a practice in Connecticut and he was calling to fill a prescription for his patient who lives in Ellwood. The script was for amoxicillin and cough syrup with codeine. Once the call had ended between the two medical professionals, the pharmacists decided to call the number that the doctor had given as a contact, however, she was then connected to a strange answering machine. She then decided to look up the practice the doctor claimed to work at, and upon calling the practice she was told that they did not call any prescriptions to the location and they further advised her that it was most certainly a fake prescription attempt. The suspect did not arrive to collect the prescription.

  1. EC Police need to hire an extra guy just to “Pound” a beat around these guys. Maybe an ounce of prevention will be worth a “Pound” of cure.
    Anyway, “Pound for Pound” it’s a shame these guys are wasting their lives.

  2. That whole family is nothing but trouble. They should lock the whole bunch of them up and throw away the key.

  3. Greetings! Greetings and Salutations EC.org staff!
    I guess my prior comment did not make the cut.
    That’s okay; I guess you want me to “pound” salt.
    At least you are not demanding your “pound” of flesh.
    I think I will go for a walk because:
    I look like 10-“pounds” of bologna in a 5-“pound” sack.
    Frui Diem!
    Your friend, Nemo

  4. well, well look who is at it again. close that bar down

    • Joe,
      I worked at that bar for many years. Maryanne is a wonderful human being and her and Jeff do a great job of keeping that bar a nice place…it’s hard to keep all terrible people out…the hazel manor is a Fun and safe place to be and work..there’s less incidents there than certain other bars in town…put your foot in your mouth and let them run their bar…they’re good people who run a great place

    • If the bar is closed then these people would have no where to go and that might “compound” the problem!

  5. Please tell me how this entire family is not locked up? They are arrested every month it seems like but always back out on the streets to commit more crimes which seem to have become more serious in nature. My god they all need to be relocated to the middle east and they can fight all they want

    • I can see you are trying to “pound” out a solution but the middle-east might not be the answer. They already have enough trouble.

  6. well, well look who is at it again. close that bar down…

  7. It’s a shame the EC Police are afraid of this family. They are a threat to every resident in the town. They need locked up. Plus aren’t these two the ones the police having been “looking for” Well you found them, now do something!!!

  8. I under stand these guys do their fare share but then again look at the foley girl who falsely accused these guys of cutting her with a box cutter and cutting her house arrest bracelet off but at the same time three of the five accused was in midland pulled over for a Burned out tail lite when that supposedly happen. Just saying everbody does their fare share of stuff in this town you just see the name more because there is a ton of them.

  9. Who wants to bet no charges will be filed? These kids walk away free all the time. The police are afraid of them! What is it going to take to get rid of them so they don’t harm anybody else again..
