According to a criminal complaint, Trooper Wilson responded to a residence on Wray Way in Reynoldsville after a female victim called Jefferson County 911 to report Sedor broke into her home at 12:53 a.m. Oct. 19.
The victim said Sedor, her ex-boyfriend, had entered her residence by breaking in through the front door and then through the door to her one-year-old son’s room where she had attempted to hide, the complaint states.
Trooper Wilson saw significant damage to the front door, and the door to the infant’s room was completely knocked off its hinges. It had fallen onto the crib where the infant was lying at the time of the incident, the complaint indicates.
The woman stated that Sedor had shoved her to the floor, grabbed her, punched her in the head and face several times and slammed her against the floor several times, according to the complaint.
