Deputies Jailed Man for Beating Up Wife at Residence between GP & Murphy
The Josephine County Sheriff's Office jailed a man this week for beating up his wife at a home between Grants Pass and Murphy.
The Sheriff's Office reports deputies arrested the 48-year-old male subject at a residence in the 4500-block of Williams Highway late Thursday night.
Deputies said a man called 9-1-1 to report that he was calling for his sister who had been injured by her husband. The caller said the female victim was hit in the head with a bowl while they were arguing. When the woman went to call for help, the husband took away her phone and hit her with it.
According to the report, the victim had a cut on the left side of her head and was bleeding badly when deputies arrived on scene. She and two juveniles who saw the incident were transported by ambulance to Three Rivers Medical Center. The kids were not injured, but accompanied their mother on the ride to the hospital.
Upon arrival, deputies interviewed both parties and then placed the husband into custody. He was lodged at the Josephine County Jail for Felony Domestic Assault in the 4th Degree. He was being held without bail.
