Aggravated Indecent Assault Charge Withdrawn Against Local Man

The most severe charge levied against a Canonsburg man—aggravated indecent assault—was withdrawn during his preliminary hearing Thursday, while two other offenses were waived to court.

Jeffrey Amand, 24, waived charges of indecent assault, a misdemeanor, and harassment to Washington County Court.

The victim had told that the man assaulted her as she was leaving the bar and attempted to give Amand—someone she said she knew from school and had run into at the bar—a good-bye hug.

Patch does not identify victims in these cases.
