Domestic Disputes Get Women in Trouble

Sometimes second chances aren't the best idea.

A 24-year-old Winchester Parkway woman was trying a reconciliation with her estranged husband, who now lives in Las Vegas and came out for a visit, as they are in the middle of a divorce.

They got into an argument around 1:10 a.m. on Jan. 10, and Westlake Police were called. The husband had a scratch on his face, furniture was thrown around and a bedroom door was damaged.

The woman was arrested for domestic violence.

Booze, Pills, Fighting ... Busted

Police found a 40-year-old woman wandering around the parking lot of her Detroit Road apartment building around 4:30 a.m. on Jan. 1.

She was under the influence of prescription drugs and beer, police said, and had blood on her clothes. The woman told police the blood came from her live-in boyfriend.

Police forced their way into the apartment, where they found the 39-year-old boyfriend with a bruise on his left forearm, a lump on his forehead, a cut on his chin and a bit mark on one of his fingers.

It turned out those injuries were caused by the woman's 16-year-old son, who had fled. The teen, who does not live with his mother, is being charged with domestic violence in juvenile court. The woman was charged with disorderly conduct by intoxication.
