A Butler man accused of assaulting two juveniles and approaching a parent with a knife has a preliminary hearing scheduled Monday, June 22.

Clinton J. Beham, 48, was charged April 18 by Butler police with felony aggravated assault, two misdemeanor counts of simple assault and misdemeanor resisting arrest following an April 17 incident.

Police said they were dispatched to the 100 block of Wyle Avenue for reports of a man attempting to take the caller’s child. Parents at the scene told police their children were playing outside when Beham exited the home and approached the children.

Police said Beham then grabbed a juvenile under 12 years old by the arm and dragged him off the property. He then yelled in the face of another juvenile before grabbing him by the shoulders and shoving him.

After the children left the vicinity, police said Beham approached the parent of the first juvenile with a folding knife.

Police said Beham also firmly grabbed an officer’s wrist and pulled away while being arrested.

Beham’s preliminary hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. Monday before District Judge William Fullerton. He was held in Butler County Prison before he posted a $15,000 bail.
