November 1, 2017

An Escambia County man is facing up to 40 year in prison after attacking a female victim with a hammer.

Charles Clark was found guilty of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, felony battery, assault and criminal mischief.

The charges arose from a domestic incident that occurred on February 13. Clark waited outside the victim’s home for her to arrive. When the victim arrived, Clark attacked the victim by striking her with a  hammer multiple times. Clark threatened and punched another victim on scene before fleeing the victim’s residence.

Circuit Judge Jan Shackelford remanded Clark on no bond and scheduled sentencing for December 20. Clark qualifies for sentencing as a habitual violent felony offender and is facing up to 40 years in prison.
