A Warrenton man has been charged for a domestic assault that was reported almost a year ago, on New Year’s Eve in 2018.
David M. Overy, 41, was charged Nov. 29 with first-degree child endangerment and fourth-degree domestic assault. The charges stem from a Dec. 31, 2018 disturbance in which Overy allegedly was in a violent confrontation with a woman and a juvenile.
Warrenton police were called to a home on the 600 block of Vosholl Avenue around 8:30 p.m. that day, according to an arrest report. Overy allegedly had gotten into a fight with a woman while at their neighbor’s house.
Police said officers also spoke with a juvenile who had a large bruise developing over his eye. The boy alleged that Overy had punched him in the eye while fighting with the woman.
Both the woman and the juvenile told police the incident began when Overy shoved the woman.
Police allege that Overy was heavily intoxicated and “belligerent” when speaking to officers, and that he had a small abrasion on his knuckle that could have been caused by striking the juvenile.
Overy has a previous conviction for second-degree assault, which he pleaded guilty to in 2017. He was given five years of state-supervised probation.
