The statement said that Peters also allegedly threw the child onto the bed. Police said the child was not injured during the alleged scuffle.

Peters’ alleged attack on his girlfriend continued when he “plac[ed] his hands around [her] neck” and lifted her off the floor, pinning her to a wall. He then allegedly banged her head against the wall repeatedly while still holding her by the neck. The girlfriend told police she could not breathe throughout the ordeal.

Peters eventually released his girlfriend, and she “collapsed onto the floor.” Police stated that she had red marks on her neck when they interviewed her. The statement said that she refused emergency medical treatment.

A warrant for Peters’ arrest was issued and he was taken into custody on Sept. 8. He was charged with domestic assault and endangering the welfare of a child. After being booked into the Jefferson County Jail without bond, a judge set his bond at $15,000 with conditions that he not contact his girlfriend or her child.
