STEUBENVILLE —
The Jefferson County sheriff says a renegade group has been attacking fellow Amish, cutting off their hair and beards.

Sheriff Fred Abdalla in Steubenville said Thursday that his deputies have been hampered by the reluctance of Amish to press charges.

His office is working with sheriffs in Carroll, Holmes and Trumbull counties investigating attacks. No charges have been filed but several victims suffered minor injuries.

The sheriff says men and sometimes women from a group of families disavowed by mainstream Amish have terrorized a half dozen or more fellow Amish. They allegedly cut the beards off men and the hair off men and women.

The sheriff says the motive may be related to religious differences involving 18 Amish families who have drawn previous attention from law enforcement.

The Amish Mafia........some bad ass dudes! Don't mess with us.

The leader of this group has been drillin' lots of chicks in Jeff county, as well as this whole gang rollin' group. To cut the beard of an amishman is extremely shameful. The length of the beard represents wisdom.

Apparently these attacks are in retaliation for the shunning of an Amish family. The Bishops of the area are the ones being targeted.

Cutting the beard off an Amish woman probably enhances her a little bit, though.
