A 47-year-old Centralia man has been charged in Marion County Court with unlawful restraint and felony domestic battery.  The bond for Jesse Wallace of South Sycamore was set at $25,000.   The court charges indicate that Wallace allegedly struck a family member in the head with his hand and allegedly pushed the same person into a car and prevented her from getting out.   The domestic battery charge was a felony due to a past domestic battery conviction.  Wallace had the public defender appointed to represent him.  Both incidents occurred on Tuesday, but Wallace wasn’t arrested until Thursday.

46-year-old Kurt Zimmerman of East 6th Street in Centralia was charged with possession of under five grams of methamphetamine.  The bond was set at $7,500.   The public defender was appointed to represent Zimmerman.
