CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — A Chillicothe woman was taken into custody early Saturday morning following a domestic disturbance that escalated into disorderly conduct while intoxicated, according to the Chillicothe Police Department.
Officers with the Chillicothe Police Department were dispatched to a residence in the 500 block of West 5th Street shortly after midnight on March 28, 2026, in reference to an active disorderly situation.
Upon arrival, officers made contact with individuals involved, including a female identified as Allia Hoosier, who reportedly displayed signs of intoxication. According to the report, Hoosier had been consuming alcohol and became involved in a verbal and physical altercation inside the residence.
Investigators learned that the incident stemmed from a dispute involving Hoosier, her mother, and a male identified as Zachary Gahm. During the encounter, Hoosier allegedly became increasingly unsteady on her feet, requiring officers to assist her to prevent falling. Police also reported that she repeatedly spoke over officers and refused to comply with instructions while they attempted to de-escalate the situation.
Officer believed they had resolved the situation allowing Hoosier to stay with a third party while she was intoxicated while Zachary, who was sober, left the area. However, when officers attempted to leave the scene Hoosier reportedly approached her temperary care taker in an aggressive manner while yelling profanities, raising concerns of further escalation if officers left the scene.
Due to her continued behavior and the risk of ongoing conflict, officers placed Hoosier under arrest for disorderly conduct while intoxicated.
She was transported to the Ross County Jail, where she was booked and held until sober. A summons was later issued for the charge, with a scheduled court appearance in Chillicothe Municipal Court on April 6, 2026.
No serious injuries were reported as a result of the incident.
All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
