Domestic-violence arrest
Police arrested a Renton man for investigation of domestic violence assault on May 9.
Officers were called to a residence in the 3800 block of Northeast Fourth Street at about 9 a.m.
A 21-year-old woman there told police that her boyfriend of three years had choked her while the two of them were lying in bed.
Apparently the woman had said something her 21-year-old boyfriend did not like and he attacked her.
When police caught up with the man, he told a different story.
Although his girlfriend mentioned that she tore his shirt and scratched his back in the attack, the man said he was the one that said something she didn’t like and she attacked him.
Police felt the injuries they observed on the woman were consistent with her story and they arrested the man for investigation of fourth-degree assault.

Her 22-year-old ex-boyfriend was inside the apartment with a friend and two girls.
When he would not open the door for her, the woman went to the man’s bedroom window and removed a screen to get inside the apartment.
Once inside, she began yelling at the man, throwing things, overturned a computer desk and went outside and threw something through the window of his car.
Then the woman came back inside and apparently tried to stab her ex-boyfriend with a small folding knife.
One of his friends was able to disarm her.
Eventually the woman’s mother and father came and took her away.
There was a no-contact order out against the man, which he did not violate because the woman came and initiated the contact.
Police found evidence corroborating the man’s friend’s story.
The man nor the woman were on the scene when police got there, but the knife was placed into evidence.
