More charges possible in assault case

Tuesday, September 2, 2003

An Alda man has been arrested in McCook for allegedly beating his wife into unconciousness Saturday evening.

McCook Police Chief Ike Brown said officers responded to a call placed by the woman's adult son and responded to a residence in the 500 block of West G. Officers reported the victim was unconscious when they arrived and appeared to have been assaulted. The woman was taken to Community Hospital of McCook and has since been released.

The 37-year-old man has been charged with third degree domestic assault. Other charges are pending after officials have the opportunity to review medical records of the victim. The man is being held in custody pending arraignment in Red Willow County Court.
