An Illinois man was arrested after his girlfriend reported that he punched, choked, and clipped her hair off with scissors during an alleged domestic dispute.
A 34-year-old male suspect and his 20-year-old girlfriend who live together in Decatur reportedly became engaged in a situation in the early morning hours on Tuesday leading to an alleged assault upon the woman.
The details regarding what caused the alleged fight were not reported, but when the woman tried to call the authorities her boyfriend allegedly grabbed her phone in a purported attempt to thwart her efforts to hail law enforcement.
