A Cantonment man is facing charges after allegedly attacking a young man during a domestic disturbance.
Kristopher Karl Jernigan, 43, was charged with felony domestic battery by strangulation and violation of a domestic violence injunction after the incident earlier this month.

Jernigan allegedly put his hands around the throat of the 18-year old male relative after pushing him against a wall. Deputies reported the victim had a red mark around this throat but was otherwise uninjured.
Jernigan remained in the Escambia County Jail Sunday morning with bond set at $34,500.
