Upon arriving at 815 Elmira St. to check on a care-dependent woman about 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 28, city police found the woman sitting on the front porch with “two black eyes and her leg bleeding,” it was stated in the affidavit. Police have charged Dawn Jackson Holloway, 24, with allegedly inflicting the woman’s injuries. Holloway, who lives with the victim at the Elmira Street address, is identified as the woman’s paid “caretaker,” in the court document. The victim, who was treated at UPMC Williamsport, told police that Holloway allegedly punched her in the face on Feb. 25. Charged with neglect of a care-dependent person, recklessly endangering, simple assault and abuse of a care-dependent person, Holloway was arraigned before District Judge William Solomon and remains in the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $35,000 bail.
