Woman Assaulted Inside Her Home
Warrants were issued against an Iron City man late last week after he allegedly assaulted his wife inside their McIntyre Road home.
Warrants were issued Friday against Bryan Jackson Hamilton, 33, charging him with domestic assault.
The victim reported Hamilton had “woke up mad at her,” and began to be abusive. She told deputies that he would pull her hair in order to force her to answer his questions.
She said he had pushed her to the ground and placed his entire body weight atop her, pushing his arm against her so hard that she could barely breathe. She told deputies that his abusive actions have become commonplace. She said she is afraid to go to sleep for fear of what he might do.
Deputies report that the woman had sustained a large bruise to her chest, just below the neck, along with other injuries.
Reports show that deputies had been unable to locate Hamilton at the time reports were filed, but that an arrest warrant was issued.
