Man seeks police help with ex-girlfriend problem

A man visited the West Reading Police station shortly after 11 a.m. July 7 to ask for help with a woman who keeps attacking him, then threatening to turn him in to the cops. The man, who is on probation and wants to stay out of jail, had put the woman, his ex-girlfriend, on the lease for his apartment in the 300 block of Penn Avenue in West Reading. The landlord has agreed to take the woman’s name off the lease. Officers told the man to call the next time she attacks him.
