A man from Whitehall, sought by authorities for his involvement in a violent gang assault, has been successfully apprehended. State Police confirmed via social media that Dylan Scoville, aged 24, was captured following an intensive search. Scoville is alleged to have participated in an attack on a person inside their Whitehall home on May 30.
The incident, which has drawn considerable attention and concern from the local community, also led to the arrests of Jessica Cleavland, 42, and a 17-year-old whose identity has been withheld due to their age. Both individuals are believed to have played significant roles in the assault alongside Scoville.
In the days leading up to his capture, police issued an alert to the public, seeking any information that could lead to Scoville’s whereabouts. The concerted efforts of law enforcement agencies and the community ultimately resulted in his apprehension, bringing a sense of relief and justice to those affected by the violent incident.
The attack, described by authorities as a gang-related assault, involved the trio allegedly forcing their way into the victim’s home and inflicting severe injuries. Details surrounding the motive for the assault and the specific nature of the injuries sustained by the victim have not been fully disclosed. However, the involvement of multiple individuals in a coordinated attack has raised alarms about gang activity in the region.
State Police have indicated that their investigation is ongoing, with a focus on uncovering the full extent of the events leading up to the assault and any potential connections to broader criminal networks. The arrests of Scoville, Cleavland, and the minor are seen as critical steps in dismantling any such networks and preventing future incidents.
