A Manitowoc man was arrested yesterday after he allegedly attacked his girlfriend multiple times.
Officers were called the Parkview Haven Apartment Complex on North 8th Street at around 9:45 AM Monday morning by the victim’s caregiver.
When they arrived, they spoke with the victim, who said the abuse started a few days prior. She said that she and her 45-year-old boyfriend, who lives in the apartment with her, had gotten into an argument two days prior, which resulted in him striking her, and causing an injury.
She explained to police that she was afraid of the suspect, so she didn’t call the police. Then, on the day of the call, the suspect allegedly asked for sex, which the victim turned down. The suspect then allegedly held her down in a chair and brandished a weapon.
The suspect was located at a bar on Washington Street and arrested without incident.
He is facing a single charge of Battery with a Domestic Violence Order.
