OSU student Barry T. Washington was charged with harassment, endangering the welfare of a minor, unlawful manufacture of marijuana, unlawful possession of marijuana and unlawful delivery of marijuana this week, according to a Corvallis Police Department press release.

CPD officers responded to a report of domestic violence at Washington's residence on May 18 and determined the parties involved were inside but refused to answer the door.

The Benton County Circuit Court granted a search warrant to the officers regarding the domestic violence report. Upon entering the apartment, officers seized more than four ounces of marijuana, money and a firearm.

Neither of the suspects was seriously injured during the domestic dispute, according to the press release.

Denise A. Skeen, 24, of Corvallis was arrested and charged with harassment and endangering the welfare of a minor.
