Overnight Attack

Two Charged After Allegedly Breaking Into House, Cutting Woman

Two Jamestown residents are in the county jail after they allegedly broke into an acquaintance's house and attacked her Wednesday morning.

Police reported that around 3:11 a.m., an officer on patrol was flagged down by a female, the victim, who told him she was attacked in her home by two people.

"Apparently, (the victim) went into the bathroom to get ready for bed and when she came back out into the living room, they were in there waiting for her," said JPD Capt. Robert Samuelson. "They were acquainted with one another and they attacked her and ran out of the house."

The victim's ear was cut and bleeding, possibly with a box cutter, Samuelson explained, and she was taken to WCA Hospital where she was treated and released.

No one else was home at the time and the motive behind the attack in unclear, Samuelson said.

A short time after the victim reported the attack, Saran Keisha Best, 26, of Thayer Street and Tarand Rahem Kindred, 25, of Stowe Street, were found and charged with first-degree burglary and second-degree assault- both felony charges.

They were held at the city jail overnight awaiting arraignment in Jamestown City Court. At arraignment, they were sent to the Chautauqua County Jail without bail.

I think if CPS and JPD were to actually follow threw with thier jobs the female would still be in jail for other things she has done. Also I agree with being armed. If you come into my home I will harm you in ANY way that I can. I protect my kids and my home. They are mine and if you come in expect to leave either in a body bag or an ambulance..

I'm armed to the gills because unfortunately Mr. wepaytaxes, not all break-ins are the result of growing weed in your home. Wise up.

thank you oldwizard! pot heads aren't committing armed robberies and killing people.

allow me quote my old friend once again (r.i.p.): "from my cold, dead hands!"--charlton heston as he proudly displayed a rifle hoisted above his head.

And no I'm not growing pot or have a family to protect. I do have several computers, big screen TV's, I may even have money in a safe in my bedroom. It's the people doing drugs that concern me. At this point every crime I've read about this week had something to do with drugs in one way or another. The attempted kidnapping was more for a rape than a drug deal but I'm familar with the person who big shock is involved in drugs. Don't like the crime rate in this town? Do something about it. If you know someone selling crack turn them in. People smoking pot don't commit these types of crimes.

I'm armed because it is my right as an american to have my weapons. I was highly trained in the Army as an infantry soldier. I'm not violent, I believe in protecting myself from enemies foriegn and domestic though. In a week there has been a child murdered, an attempted break in, an attempted kidnapping, an actual break in, along with a man turning himself in for shooting into a house on Forest Ave. The question shouldn't be why are we armed but more why aren't you?

everyone is armed because it's our right to be. and there's always the change that an officer might not respond in time to defend/save your life.

They were aquaintances...probably everyone was involved with something illegal. Why is everyone armed to the gills and paranoid? Is everyone growing pot in their home?

I've been itching to shoot off a few of my 7.62 x 39's - Russian style. Yeah, you guys know what I'm talking about.

I'm with you Wiz. I don't live in the city anymore, but my rules are the same as your...And I keep 4 in the chamber of my pump.

I'm with Phillip, I'm not hiding. I've lived in Jamestown most of my life, everybody that knows me knows I've gone by old wizard for years. All you criminals are welcome at my house anytime. I'm less than 10 feet from a 25 cal. loaded pistol and 15 feet from a shotgun. Come on by, I'm not prejudice, I'll shoot anyone that I don't recognize that is breaking in. I'll let you get in the house. It's getting out you need to worry about...

i'm with hammond and oldwizard. i'm not a proponent of violence. but i do know of 2 of the most easy anti-theft deterrents: step 1-purchase a firearm. step 2-purchase a sticker that reads something to the effect of "dwellers are armed with firearms." step 3-proudly display many of these stickers on windows and/or doors throughout the structure. most criminals are definitely dumb and stupid. most criminals are definitely NOT suicidal! if you think i'm kidding, i'd gladly PUBLICLY post my home address with a not-so-subtle warning: enter illegally at your own risk!

2nd amendment forever!!!!

"hate" - not "had"

Agreed wizard. I'm not a violent person. I hate violence. But I had innocent people being prey to human scum even more.

I don't want to appear as if I'm agreeing to violence but I am compelled to agree with hammond. I live in a nice neighborhood, I'm armed, the Army taught me how to fire my weapon and you can believe if I catch someone breaking into my house they'll be leaving by ambulance.

I'm not one to accuse without evidence but the drug situation in this city needs to get under control. Look at these people and the guy who did the attempted burglery. Crack and meth give you a distint makeover... Need I say more?

Nothing a few 12 gauge rounds can't handle. Imagine how many less break-ins there would be if all of the good citizens were armed.
