No Assault
City Police were called to a residence in the “P” patch early this morning regarding an assault complaint. Upon further investigation, it was determined no assault had taken place, but the female involved in the incident was on conditions not to communicate or be in the presence of the male at the residence officers were dispatched to. These conditions stemmed from an earlier domestic complaint. The female was located at a separate residence and was charged with 2 counts of breaching conditions of her recognizance.
