27-year-old Maurice Smith was involved in a domestic altercation with his wife, Channie Smith, at their Ashford Place apartment on April 13th. Channie contacted law enforcement and stated that she and Maurice had been arguing most of the day. Channie added that Maurice was upset that she wanted to end their marriage. During the argument, he followed her upstairs and continued to argue with her. Maurice began throwing items around the room when they reached their bedroom.
Channie then went into the bathroom, where Maurice followed behind again and used his arm to push her against the door. Maurice attempted to take Channie’s phone out of her hands but ended up scratching her. Channie then almost fell into the bathtub, but when she agreed not to call the police, Maurice released her. Once Channie returned to the bedroom, Maurice followed her and kept arguing. Maurice refused to calm down and, at one point, grabbed Channie’s hand to pull off her wedding ring. Maurice Smith was taken into custody and charged with aggravated domestic assault on April 16th.
