Three North Platte men are facing charges after confusion leads to anger.

At around 9:15 PM on Friday, North Platte Police received a call from the 1300 block of North Dodge.  The caller advised dispatchers that a white pickup was hooking up to a camper and driving off.

As an Officer responded, he witnessed the pickup and camper in the area of North Walnut and 12th Street and initiated a traffic stop.  An investigation revealed that the driver, 33-year-old Joseph Martino, had been paid by the owner of the camper to move it.  However, because Martino had entered the property without the land owner’s permission, he was cited for 2nd Degree Criminal Trespass and Disturbing the Peace.

In the meantime, Martin Sellers, Sr., 62, Martin Sellers, Jr., 38 and 34-year old Jason Sellers arrived on the scene and began yelling at and arguing with Martino.

Martin Sellers, Sr. then tried to assault Martino and had to be physically restrained by Officers.  He was arrested and jailed on an Obstruction of Justice charge.

Officer also determined there was probable cause to charge Martin Sellers, Jr. and Jason Sellers with the same charge.
