Then on January 16th, the man allegedly went to the woman’s house where he choked her and dealt her several cuffs before dragging her on the floor. This was followed with another outburst by the man on February 19th at 9am. The woman was standing in front of her yard when the man who was passing in a car, jumped out with a glass bottle in his hand. The police reported that he used the bottle to lash her to her face and body.
