City Man Arrested Following Domestic Dispute

An argument between a married couple in a North Broadway home that turned physical landed a White Plains man in jail facing assault and child endangerment charges, police say.

The 28-year-old man's wife told police the argument started in their shared apartment at about 10 p.m. on May 18. According to police, the wife said a verbal argument escalated to the couple throwing the remote control at each other and then to the man choking her and taking her phone as she tried to call police.

When the woman tried to stop her husband from leaving the apartment with her cell phone, police say the man hit her in the chin, knocking her into a wall. The man eventually threw the phone on the ground before leaving, police say, and his wife called police.

The couple's 17-month-old son was in the apartment during the dispute, but wasn't injured, police say.

Police later found the husband at police headquarters where he went to report the incident. The man was placed under arrest and charged with misdemeanor assault, menacing, endangering the welfare of a child, criminal mischief and criminal obstruction of breathing.

He was held for court without bail.

Child Protective Services was called to investigate the incident.
