Man accused of illegally tattooing two girls

Shenandoah County sheriff's deputies arrested a 21-year-old Woodstock man on Sept. 10 and charged him with two counts of unlawfully tattooing a minor.

Maj. Scott Proctor of the Shenandoah County Sheriff's Office said deputies arrested Tobey H. Magee, 3085 Jadwyn Road, after fielding a complaint from the parents of a 15-year old girl that he had put a small tattoo on her finger. Proctor said further investigation led deputies to discover a 17-year-old girl who had also received a tattoo on one of her fingers from Magee.

State law requires a parent to give permission before a minor can be tattooed, Proctor said.

Magee is scheduled to appear at 9 a.m. Oct. 11 in Shenandoah County Juvenile and Domestic Court.
