Three Week Death Investigation Closes with Tell City Man Jailed for Murder

March 22, 2017

0

A three week long death investigation closed out Monday evening after investigators arrested a Tell City man on murder charges.

Arrested and Charged with one county of murder was Randal L. Coalter, 45, of Tell City, IN.

Police do not have detailed information as to the relationship between the suspect and the victim, other than they did know each other previously and were acquaintances.

On March 4, 2017, the Perry County Sheriff’s Department requested the assistance of the Indiana State Police with the investigation into the death of 62-year-old David Weedman of Saint Croix. Initial reports to police indicated that Weedman died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in his home; however, law enforcement fully investigated the death as suspicious.

An autopsy conducted on March 7 in Tell City revealed that the fatal wound sustained by Weedman was not consistent with a self-inflicted wound.

State Police investigators continued to pursue the investigation as a murder investigation.

Over the course of the next two weeks, the investigation led detectives to investigate Coalter.

Investigators learned that Weedman and Coalter had become involved in a physical altercation on March 1^st in Weedman’s home. March 1^st was the last time Weedman was seen alive.

“The information given to detectives leading them to arrest Coalter was direct and indirect information from a witness, which at this point I am not allowed, per department policy, to release,” said ISP Sergeant Philip Hensley.

Detectives presented enough evidence within a probable cause affidavit to obtain an arrest warrant for Coalter.

Coalter was arrested without incident March 21^st and was lodged in the Perry County Security Center.

Indiana State Police detectives were assisted throughout the case by the Perry County Sheriff’s Department and the Tell City Police Department.

A Monday afternoon warrant service in Huntingburg led officers to additional arrests and to seize marijuana and methamphetamine.

Arrested and Charged were Chad J. Ramsey, 35 and Gregory L. Reisz, 30, both of Huntingburg, IN.

Each was charged with:
– Possession of Methamphetamine, Level 6 Felony
– Maintaining a Common Nuisance, Level 6 Felony
– Possession of Marijuana, Class B Misdemeanor
– Possession of Paraphernalia, Class C Misdemeanor
– Possession of a Chinese Throwing Star, Class C Misdemeanor

At 1:53 P.M. Monday, Trooper Brock Werne and officers with the Huntingburg Police Department attempted to serve an arrest warrant at 213 North Van Buren Street in Huntingburg. Officers were looking for 35 year old Chad Ramsey of Huntingburg, who was wanted through Dubois County for failing to appear for a court appearance.

As officers arrived at the front door, Werne went to the back of the residence, and heard voices inside a shed in the back yard. Werne knocked on the door, asking for Ramsey; Ramsey exited a second door and was placed into custody.

As officers were arresting Ramsey, they could smell a strong odor of burnt marijuana coming from the inside of the shed. Officers obtained consent to search the shed from the second man present, 30 year old Gregory Reisz of Huntingburg. Officers found marijuana, smoking devices, digital scales, and a container containing a white powder that field tested positive for methamphetamine. Additionally, officers found a Chinese throwing star hanging on the wall, which is illegal to possess in Indiana.

Ramsey and Reisz were transported to and lodged in the Dubois County Security Center without incident.

Marcus Andrew Buba, 27, New Washington, was arrested and taken into custody. He was charged with Criminal Confinement, a level 3 felony, and Felony Intimidation, a level 5 felony.

On March 20, 2017, at approximately 11:44am, the Indiana State Police in Sellersburg received a 911 call reporting that a female was being held against her will and threatened at knife point at her boyfriend’s New Washington residence.

The 911 call was made by the female victim’s coworker who said the victim contacted him advising she could not make it to work and that her boyfriend had threatened to stab her if she attempted to leave.

The suspect also allegedly stated he would stab the victim if the police were contacted.

The coworker immediately called 911 and advised the Indiana State Police of the situation and a general area of the suspect’s residence, however, the caller was unable to provide a specific address or the name of the suspect.

At approximately 1:30pm Officers from the Indiana State Police and the Clark County Sheriff’s Department located a blue PT Cruiser believed to be driven by the female victim at 6322 New Washington – Bethlehem Road.

After a short period of surveillance, Officers surrounded the house and approached the front door.

After knocking on the door the female victim ran from the residence to awaiting officers.

Buba then exited the residence and was taken into custody without incident.

The Indiana State Police were assisted by the Clark County Sheriff’s Department. Marcus Buba was incarcerated at the Clark County Jail.
