James Kinley, who lives on Hunter Street, alerted his family to someone inside the reportedly empty trailer.
Harward, Larry Kinley, James Kinley and their mother, Lisa Sarls, agreed to meet at the trailer, entering an open door and fighting with the people inside, who attempted a “house arrest” on the owner, her sons and the 65-year-old man, according to Deputy J. M. Collins’ report.
