A transient was jailed after an alleged strangulation incident Sunday night.

A Sutherlin Police report said just after 8:45 p.m. 36-year old Jerrod Jones engaged in a fight at an establishment in the 200 block of West Central Avenue. That included allegedly strangling a victim after reading a text message on her phone that came from another individual.

Jones was charged with strangulation, second-degree disorderly conduct and harassment. He was detained without bail.
