A Tarentum man who is facing charges of assaulting his son was taken into custody by the Allegheny County Sheriff’s Office.
Jeffrey Shutak, 53, was charged in July 2019 after police responded to a report of a domestic disturbance on Freeport Road. Shutak’s 17-year-old son told officers that his father had assaulted him and police observed a number of injuries, according to a report from Sheriff Kevin Kraus.
In June 2020, Shutak failed to show for a court appearance on charges of simple assault and endangering the welfare of children and a bench warrant was issued.
On Tuesday morning, detectives from the sheriff’s office located Shutak at a home on Grantham Street in Tarentum.
He was arrested without incident and transported to the Allegheny County Jail.
