Muldrow Man Faces Misdemeanor Counts

A Muldrow man was arrested Jan. 15 and charged with two misdemeanors, according to a police report.

Schuyler Dewey Cantwell, 37, was charged with loitering and public intoxication, the record shows.

Two Muldrow police officers responded Jan. 15 to a report that Cantwell was sitting in a vehicle outside the police department and refusing to get out. The vehicle’s owner, Jessica Cantwell, told the officers that Schuyler Cantwell was intoxicated and scaring her children. At least one child was in the vehicle’s back seat.

Schuyler Cantwell was arrested at the scene and transported to the Sequoyah County Jail for booking. He was later released on $1,500 bond.

The loitering charge is punishable by up to one year in prison, a fine of up to $500 or both. The penalty for the public intoxication charge is imprisonment in the county jail for no more than six months, a fine of up to $500 or both.
