Assault-related charges land Hughesville woman in jail

Tonya-Sue Chambers, 43, of 49 N. Main St., apartment 2, Hughesville, was jailed on charges of strangulation, simple assault, endangering the welfare of a child and harassment after putting her hands around a family member’s neck, “causing him not to breathe,” during a disturbance in her apartment on Dec. 27, it was alleged in a state police affidavit. The victim, a minor, managed to flee to a neighbor’s to get help, police said. Chambers, who also was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, was arraigned before District Judge Gary Whiteman and committed to the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $10,000. She has since been held for court on all the charges.
