ARGUMENT LEADS TO ARREST FOR LANDERS MAN

An argument over how to treat a child escalated into an assault in Landers late Thursday night. Jeremiah Johnson, 18, of Landers, was sitting in his auntā€™s back yard in the 58400 block of Stearman Road in Landers when they began arguing about how Johnson treated his auntā€™s child. The woman and child went in the house, locked Johnson outside, and locked themselves into a bedroom.
