Throwback Thursday...
The Logan County Sheriff's Department arrested a man for wearing a mask after receiving several calls of people wearing masks in Logan County.
This comes after multiple "scary clown" sightings have been reported in West Virginia and Ohio.
The Logan County Sheriff's Department wants to remind the public it is illegal to wear a mask in public, with only a few exceptions.
In a Facebook post, the Logan County Sheriff's Department said:
We want everyone to be aware that WV State Law 61-6-22 states: "No person, whether in a motor vehicle or otherwise, while wearing any mask, hood or device whereby any portion of the face is so covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, may:
(1) Come into or appear upon any walk, alley, street, road, highway or other thoroughfare dedicated to public use;
(2) Come into or appear in any trading area, concourse, waiting room, lobby or foyer open to, used by or frequented by the general public;
(3) Come into or appear upon or within any of the grounds or building owned, leased, maintained or operated by the state or any political subdivision thereof;
(4) Ask, request, or demand entrance or admission to the premises, enclosure, dwelling or place of business of any person within this state; or
(5) Attend or participate in any meeting upon private property of another unless written permission for such meeting has first been obtained from the owner or occupant thereof.
