Charges have been laid following a domestic dispute in Wallaceburg.
Officers responded to Dufferin Avenue just after 1 o’clock Wednesday afternoon and say a man and woman got into a fight before things turned violent.
Investigators say the woman was trying to leave the room when the man allegedly grabbed her from behind, wrapping his arm around her neck and forcing her to the ground.
According to police, a similar incident took place in March, 2020 as well.
A 39-year-old Walpole Island man has now been charged with assault and two counts of assault causing bodily harm.
He was taken to police headquarters and later released with conditions and a date in court next month.
