GALENA TOWNSHIP -- A plan to hunt ghosts near Posey Chapel ended in the arrest of three Michigan residents late Wednesday night.

Shortly after 10 p.m., La Porte County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded to a report of three women arguing while walking down CR-1000N in Galena Township. Police found six people walking on the road. One male reportedly ran into the nearby woods.

Police chased Mark Poff, 47, of Three Oaks, Mich., into the woods and apprehended him. Poff was reportedly verbally abusive to officers and threatened them.

Poff and the others told police they were headed to Posey Chapel to look for ghosts.

Poff was arrested for resisting law enforcement, public intoxication and furnishing alcohol to a minor. James Peterson, 20, and Chelsea Rogmussen, 20, both of Michigan, were arrested for underage drinking. Police let the other three people go.
