Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office intervened in Bedford Heights domestic dispute, records show

CLEVELAND -- The Bedford Heights police chief wanted to prosecute a deputy sheriff who threatened to kill four patrolmen, but the charges were never filed after officials from the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office intervened, records show.

Sheriff's Lt. Robert Chilton told four Bedford Heights officers he would kill them during a drunken rage after his wife called 9-1-1 and said her husband hit her in June 2007.

Bedford Heights Police Chief Tim Kalavsky told sheriff's officials he planned to seek criminal charges against Chilton in Bedford Municipal Court because of the threats and the numerous incidents at Chilton's house.

The Sheriff's Office asked to handle the case.
