The woman told officers that the man struck her in the face, causing her glasses to be hit during the altercation. But as officers began speaking with witnesses and piecing together what had happened, troubling details started to emerge. Why did the argument begin in [music] the first place?

So, the TPO says that he can only have non-harassing communication through a phone or email about the children and the pregnancy >> concerns. He's not supposed to be here. >> So, there is there is a TPL. >> Yeah. >> Okay. When I asked her about it, she said it wasn't. >> It's up on your computer now. >> Oh, >> it's on your screen. You can look at it, don't you? >> No. No. >> It says that he's not allowed to be here. >> Okay. >> Um, >> what is it? Um if he is here aggravated stalking or >> what >> the violation of the CPO like is that would it be aggravated stalking or uh so [sighs] I would ask her how did he come back and how long he's been here cuz if she invited him I wouldn't do ax talking. >> Um >> would it still be violation? >> I would do violation of family. >> Okay. uh violence order, but I wouldn't do act stalking because that's usually like say if they get a TPO and then they selfinitially come and violate it and >> they're like, you know, not supposed to be there. >> I mean, I guess in a way you could, but I probably wouldn't. You you can ask Ellison Sergeant Ellison >> because he came from the DV unit, but I personally would probably do violation. >> Okay. I'd probably do battery, family violence, violation. >> Well, I would do battery, but when I looked at her face, I didn't see any like swelling or any marks that she was hit. I I'd probably do simple battery. Nobody else really saw him hit her, but I mean, there is still that allegation. >> Um, but I mean, still battery family violence cuz they do have kids together. Um, >> and and there's like no marks. >> I didn't see any >> no damage to her glasses where like she said he punched her and knocked her glasses off. >> Yeah, they did say that her glasses came off. Uh, didn't see any damage on her glasses. >> You can ask her if they're like, "Hey, during the, you know, the fight, did >> Mhm. >> your glasses get damaged?" >> Mhm. >> But yeah, that's what I would ask her. Like, how did how did he come back? How long has he been here? And then um ask her about her plants. >> No. I mean I mean did she say she was hurting anywhere? >> Like like say wherever you punched her at. Did she say oh yeah like I'm hurting here or >> she didn't she didn't mention anything bad. >> I'd probably ask her that too. Ask her like you know you said you got hit. Like are you hurting anywhere? >> I got you. Um is that a >> face card? >> Yeah. Did you already? And then I'm about to go get you a um pamphlet. >> Okay, cool. Appreciate it. >> Um Miss You said he lives here. Um how long has he been here? >> It been probably like a couple months. >> A couple months. >> I know. I probably had to go to the court. Um well, we looked on the computer and there's actually a there's currently a um protection order uh against him that he's not supposed to be over here. Is there did you know anything about that? >> No. Okay. >> I rarely drink my nail pol. >> Okay, gotcha. Um Okay. And you said he's been here for a few months. >> Okay, gotcha. Um [snorts] when he hit you in the face, did he damage your glasses any or >> No. >> No. Okay. >> Just not my mom. >> Gotcha. Um, did you feel any or I guess are you still feeling any type of pain? I know you said you didn't want to jump. >> He just hit me and I tried to hit that but she jumped in between. So, >> okay. [laughter] I did the best I can, but I didn't want him to hit me right out there. [laughter] >> Oh. Uh, also, what's a good phone number? >> Got you. >> Hey, so I told him there's no TPO. >> Did you hear or >> Oh, no. It's um >> It's a wholesale flush. Never had a TPO. I don't even remember has no TPO has one. >> Huh? >> Marty. >> No, we never >> 28. >> No, you're not. >> 28. >> Uh, almost two years. >> Okay. I know that. >> [laughter] >> You get to keep all you need to keep all that money. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. It's showing a TPO cuz it said that he can only have email or uh phone communication with you. >> I I read it cuz I really checked my mailbox. So, if I did get the letter, I never knew it. >> Yeah. It said that um he can only talk to you about your children and pregnancy concerns, >> but um said that he's not supposed to be here at the address >> or anything like that. >> So >> right now it's showing active but you >> I don't know if he's asked you already but how long has he been living here? probably like a month. >> Did he live here like previously or did he just [laughter] move on my >> No, we together but like in and out. >> Okay. He just live somewhere else. >> Y'all cameras do not stay on press record when y'all get out the car. >> Yeah. >> Told you the battery down. I say >> you already asked for everything. >> Okay. >> 36. Okay. >> Which one? >> I have not. >> All right. So, this is your bill of rights. Since it's a domestic relationship, we have to give it to you. So he's looking at a simple battery family violence and since it's showing you have a valid TPO violation of TPO and then if you want to uh he'll be issu issuing warrants when him if we don't have contact with him tonight. So you can sign up for Vine right here >> where if he gets arrested and you don't want any contact with him, they'll call you or text you like however you set it up and let you know that he's being released. Then also feel free to read through it cuz it just explains a lot of different resources you have and these are also additional resources. >> All right. >> Have there been any other um >> she said a few years ago when we first >> Okay. Nothing like Yeah, she said that to her knowledge he hasn't been arrested lately. >> Okay. >> So, she doesn't know where the TPO would have came from. >> When was the last time he was arrested? >> A dispute between a man and woman over belongings quickly turned physical when the woman alleged that he struck her in the face while she was gathering her things. The man reportedly fled after the confrontation, and when her phone dropped, her young daughter picked it up and called police for help. >> I didn't know when he got when he got into it, when we got together. [clears throat] That's that could have been what it was. >> But that was like when we first got together, like that was a couple years ago. >> But I don't know when the last time he got arrested. >> I mean, I can check on it and see if it's open. or they closed it. >> Oh, the TPO. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just to um confirm the status. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> But you still got some battery anyway. >> Yeah. >> Um >> other than that, do you have any questions for us? >> No, sir. >> Okay. >> Um well, >> yeah. Yeah, I got everything. >> Um definitely try to have a better night. Uh if he does come back here, give us a call and just let us know. Um, and if y'all can't [laughter] call, you can also text 911. >> I didn't know they had been. >> Yeah. So, the reason you can text 911, it's like say someone gets kidnapped. And obviously, they can't like, >> you know, say, "Hey, I'm kidnapped." They just text 911 >> and y'all search the location. >> Uh, no, they can text you back >> and y'all just text back and forth. >> Okay, I got you. But I mean, yeah, we'll get your location, but still like they'll ask you like what's going on and try to get >> out, right? >> I done forgot your name. When do y'all press record when y'all recording people and put them on YouTube? >> Uh, whoa, I don't need to be on it. >> I look a no [ __ ] I [laughter] >> got you not being recorded. You told I got on no lash. I need to make sure I'mma put I got to be on camera. [laughter] >> You You'll see the red You'll see the red light if you see this performance.
