Sterling police make multiple arrests and summonses December 6
Sterling police took one person into custody and issued three summonses during separate incidents on the evening of December 6, affecting locations on Front Street, Main Street, and College Avenue. The activity underscores ongoing enforcement of protection orders, public order laws, and underage drinking regulations, matters that touch families, businesses, and public safety in Logan County.
Sterling police arrested Cody Brooks Bastrisky, 21, of Sterling, at about 11:07 p.m. on December 6 in the 100 block of N. Front St. He was taken into custody on a charge of violation of a protection order. That charge involves alleged contact in violation of a court issued order intended to prevent harassment or harm, and it will be handled through the local criminal justice system.
Earlier that afternoon, at about 3:30 p.m., officers issued a summons to Scott Allen Wilson, 49, of Haxtun, in the 1500 block of W. Main St. The summons cited refusal to comply with a lawful order and disturbing the peace. Summonses require a court appearance or other legal response rather than immediate detention, and they signal that police concluded there was sufficient cause to pursue formal charges without an arrest.
The evening also saw two separate summonses for underage possession and consumption of alcohol on College Avenue. At 9:35 p.m. Andrew Jason Foos, 19, of Burlington, was cited in the 100 block of College Ave. At 11:35 p.m. Nathan James Foos, 18, of Burlington, received a similar summons in the same block. Underage drinking citations typically lead to fines and court requirements, and they can have ripple effects for families, young drivers, and local businesses that serve alcohol.
For Logan County residents the incidents highlight several community priorities. Enforcement of protection orders is a safeguard for vulnerable residents and a reminder that domestic safety measures are taken seriously. Public order prosecutions and underage drinking citations reflect ongoing attention to downtown activity and nightlife, particularly on College Avenue where young people and local establishments converge. Businesses that serve alcohol, parents and guardians of teenagers, and community organizations focused on public safety will feel the direct relevance of these cases.
Each matter will proceed through the county court process, where prosecutors and judges will determine outcomes based on the evidence and applicable law. Sterling police increase their presence in response to calls for service, and residents who witness disturbances or potential violations should continue to contact law enforcement so authorities can address issues promptly.
