“The front end of the car was actually in the basement of the house,” said Police Chief Michael J. Menster.

Sharon firefighters removed Harrison from the car. He was taken to St. Elizabeth Health Center, Youngstown, with facial, head and arm injuries, police said. A spokeswoman said the hospital is not giving out any information about Harrison.

There were people inside the house, but they weren’t hurt, police said.

Harrison is the son of Farrell Mayor Olive Brown-McKeithan and brother of Farrell Area School Board member Terrance Harrison.

Timothy Harrison is facing charges of burglary, criminal trespass, theft and receiving stolen property for allegedly stealing a cafeteria safe and the $635 it contained in October from Farrell Area School District, where he worked in the maintenance department.

Woman attacked sister with knife, police say

SHARON — A Sharon woman was arrested for hitting her sister over the head with a pot lid and a glass ash tray, and trying to stab her, police said.

Helen Brown, 56, of 1234 Baldwin Ave., was arrested on charges of aggravated and simple assault at 6:21 p.m. Wednesday at home, police said.

The victim did not seek medical attention.

Police gave this account:

Ms. Brown had been drinking heavily when she became agitated and grabbed a steak knife and a fork. She held the utensils to the victim’s face and shouted threats.

When Ms. Brown tried to cut her sister, the victim was able to wrestle the knife away after suffering minor cuts to her cheek and nose.

Ms. Brown hit her sister with the pot lid, and other family members pulled her away. Ms. Brown broke away and grabbed the ash tray.

Ms. Brown also tried to hit her sister with a telephone and bit another family member on the arm.
