I saw that on the Trib's website when it was posted and eagerly clicked to find out how all ended in the attorney being jailed.

Yeah for me to grab it at first glance it needs to be "Derry Twp. man accused of assaulting female witness and attorney is jailed on $100,000 bond"
Aren’t commas allowed in headlines?
“Derry Twp. man, accused of assault on female witness and attorney, jailed on $100,000 bond”
Difference between the headline and the social media blurb. The comma isn’t enough to clear up the problem.
