Man Charged With Aggravated Assault With A Deadly Weapon

April 17, 2012

A Century man is behind bars, charged in a Sunday domestic violence incident.

Thomas Whendell Powell, age 25 of North Century Boulevard, was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and battery, both domestic violence related.

Powell allegedly got into an argument with his wife at a North Century Boulevard apartment. Powell  told deputies that he had been drinking heavily and admitted to punching a hole in a wall, according to an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office arrest report.

The victim told deputies that Powell punched a hole in wall, poured his beer over her, grabbed her, and pushed her against the apartment wall several times. She reported that Powell grabbed a kitchen knife and raised it over his head as if he were going to stab her.

Powell remained in the Escambia County Jail Tuesday morning with bond set at $65,000.

    some people shouldn’t drink

    Since you don’t know which people it will be, it would be safer if no people drank.

    But they will, anyway. Such is life.

    David for safety
