A man out of Pike County is now in jail on a number of charges related to an alleged drunken rampage.

 

Troopers with the Kentucky State Police were called to a home on Greasy Creek, belonging to 41-year-old Robin Pettit. Family members informed police that Pettit had drank an entire bottle of liquor before getting into a quarrel with his mother and sister. The women added that, at one point, Pettit strangled his mother and tried to put his hands down his sister’s pants.

 

Pettit allegedly cursed and threatened officers once in custody.

 

The man now faces a number of charges, including rape, strangulation, assault, and alcohol intoxication.
