A preliminary hearing is scheduled today for a man charged with disrupting business at the district court office in Clymer.
50-year-old Robert J. Mack of Northern Cambria will go before District Judge Robert Bell Sr. today for his hearing. He is charged with misdemeanor resisting arrest and disorderly conduct along with summary harassment for an incident at District Judge Christopher Welch’s office on April 10th. Sheriff Bob Fyock said that as Mack interacted with staffers, he became belligerent and disruptive. After refusing to leave when Judge Welch ordered him several times to do so, a deputy sheriff on duty intervened. Mack tried to push by the deputy several times to get back to the front desk, and resisted arrest as the deputy took him into custody.
He has been in Indiana County Jail since his arrest as he was unable to post $20,000 unsecured bail.
