Man jailed for violating PFA
A Schuylkill County man was jailed on Friday for violating a protection from abuse order.
State police at Frackville said Gregory James Ney, 35, of Orwigsburg, violated a PFA order when he called his girlfriend while she was at work at the McDonald's restaurant in New Castle Township. The calls were made at 10:15 a.m.
Ney was arraigned before on-call District Judge James Ferrier, of Orwigsburg, on a charge of indirect criminal contempt and committed to the county prison in Pottsville after failing to post $2,500 straight cash bail.
