Aggravated Assault, Simple Assault & Harassment Charges Filed in Wellsboro, Tioga County
WELLSBORO, Pa. – A Tioga County Magisterial District Court docket shows that Fisher Osborn Cushing, a 19‑year‑old male resident of Wellsboro, was charged on August 17, 2026 with three felony and misdemeanor offenses stemming from an incident that occurred the same day.
The criminal complaint, filed by the Wellsboro Borough Police Department and assigned incident number WP‑26‑00107, lists the following charges:
- Aggravated Assault – Grade F2, 18 Pa.C.S. § 2702(a)(3) (“Attempts to cause or causes bodily injury to designated individuals”).
- Simple Assault – Grade M2, 18 Pa.C.S. § 2701(a)(1).
- Harassment – Grade S, 18 Pa.C.S. § 2709(a)(1) (“Subject other to physical contact”).
All three offenses are dated August 17, 2026, the same day the complaint was filed (Complaint No. 7686, OTN T 1020971‑0). The arresting officer identified in the docket is Officer Jeremy M. Cook of the Wellsboro Borough Police Department.
The case is being heard before Magisterial District Judge Robert L. Repard of the 04‑3‑02 district. The docket lists the issue date as August 17, 2026, and the case status is marked “Inactive – Awaiting Preliminary Hearing” as of that same date. No bail amount, bond conditions, or fingerprinting status were recorded in the docket; the record notes that the defendant has not been fingerprinted.
Cushing was advised of his right to apply for an assignment of counsel, but the docket indicates that he did not request a public defender and no attorney has been entered on the record at this time. The Tioga County District Attorney’s Office, located at 118 Main Street, Wellsboro, PA 16901 (phone 570‑724‑1350), is representing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Because the case is still pending a preliminary hearing, no disposition, fines, costs, or restitution have been entered. The docket will be updated as the matter progresses through the Magisterial District Court.
Under Pennsylvania law, Cushing is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
