Chattooga County Deputies responded to a call about an abandoned truck being left in a field on Pennington Drive, near the Chattooga River, in Summerville on Wednesday of last week. Deputies met with the owner of the property who said that the truck had damaged the field and that the field would have to be plowed up to repair the damage. Inside the vehicle, deputies found multiple traffic citations that were issued to seventeen-year-old Jordan Grady Roan. Deputies traveled to Roan’s residence and asked him about the abandoned truck. The teen told the deputies that he knew the owner and had permission to “go riding” in the field. He told the deputies that a tire had gone flat, so he left the truck in the field. But when deputies pressed Roan about who owned the property, he told them he would have to call a friend to find out who owned the property. Roan was placed under arrest and charged with criminal trespass and was booked into the Chattooga County Jail.
