Officers with the Jamestown Police Department arrested 31-year-old Samantha Omeruo on Monday following a reported disorderly person call at a northside address.











Following an investigation, it was alleged that Omeruo told her 7-year-old daughter she’d give her a knife so the girl could cause harm to herself.
