Police briefs

Valuable coin

Kimberly Ann Elkins was arrested and charged on Feb. 25 with two felonies for allegedly stealing a valuable antique coin, according to a report at the Rappahannock County Sheriff's Office.

The 48-year-old Staunton woman was charged with obtaining by false pretense an item valued at $200 or more and fraudulently embezzling U.S. currency valued at $200 or more.

The item in question is an old half-cent coin that belongs to an elderly Sperryville woman for whom Elkins is a caretaker. Sheriff Connie Smith said the exact value of the coin has not been determined, but it is estimated to be worth thousands of dollars.

Visitor arrested

Amber Durney went to visit an inmate at the Rappahannock County Jail on Feb. 27 and ended up getting arrested. All visitors at the jail are required to show identification, so the jailers can make sure the person is not wanted for any crimes.

According to a report at the RCSO, the 18-year-old Durney had been charged with counterfeiting in Culpeper County and was wanted by the Culpeper Sheriff's Office.

DUI

Randy Frazier was arrested around 9:30 p.m. Sunday for driving under the influence and driving while his license was suspended. Deputy Angela Deavers arrested the 35-year-old man on Indian Run Road in Amissville.
