An incident leading to an arrest on charges of attempted murder and domestic violence took place on Wednesday morning near the victim’s residence in a parish of Paredes. The suspect allegedly attempted to strangle the victim.
The judicial police report that the suspect, who had been separated from the 42-year-old victim for approximately three years, had a “history of disputes related to the family home,” resulting in previous preventative measures being imposed by judicial authorities in a domestic violence case.
The suspect is scheduled for an initial judicial hearing to determine appropriate coercive measures.
