Man Allegedly Attacks Girlfriend For Refusing Tattoo Of His Name
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — Police say an Iowa man attacked his girlfriend with a hammer because she refused to let him tattoo his name on her chest.
The Sioux City Journal reports (http://bit.ly/2cqzDyG ) that 28-year-old Jonathan Michael Boggs has been charged with aggravated domestic assault and going armed with intent.
Police say Boggs of Sioux City had been dating the woman for about a month when, on Friday, he suggested the tattoo. She refused, an argument ensued and she tried to leave the house. Boggs stopped her from leaving, threatened to kill her with a hammer then assaulted her with the tool.
Boggs was being held Tuesday in the Woodbury County Jail on $10,000 bond. His lawyer did not respond to a call Wednesday morning seeking comment.
