David Olewinski of DuBois is facing various charges including trying to blow up his house.
Reports say last Tuesday Olewinski turned the gas on in his home and when his wife smelled it and asked why, he said he didn’t remember doing it. Further investigation found that Olewinski told someone that he was going to burn the house down, and neighbors could smell the gas outside the home.
On Wednesday, Olewinski’s wife reported that they were separating and that he assaulted her while packing. Olewinski also punched the victim twice in the head and lip before leaving in her vehicle.
Olewinski was also found to be in possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. He is currently residing in the Clearfield County Jail and has a preliminary hearing with Judge Ford on Friday.
