Barnesville Man Faces Three Assault Charges<\/h2>\n

Barnesville (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 A Clay County man faces three misdemeanor assault charges after a July 16 disturbance near Barnesville.<\/p>\n

Jamie Paul Hanson, 50, is charged with one count of misdemeanor domestic assault. He also faces two misdemeanor fifth-degree assault charges.<\/p>\n

The charges were filed in Clay County District Court. The court case number is 14-CR-26-2524.<\/p>\n

Complaint Describes Late-Night Disturbance<\/h2>\n

Law enforcement was called to a home on Highway 9 South around 10:19 p.m. The caller reported that several people had been assaulted.<\/p>\n

According to the complaint, Hanson\u2019s son had friends at the property. The group was working on an old pickup truck.<\/p>\n

Hanson allegedly came around a corner while yelling and telling everyone to leave. His son said Hanson then rushed toward him.<\/p>\n

The son believed Hanson planned to harm him, according to the complaint. Punches were then exchanged during the confrontation.<\/p>\n

The complaint alleges Hanson placed his son in a headlock several times. The son\u2019s shirt was torn during the incident.<\/p>\n

Authorities searched for Hanson that night. They did not find him at the residence.<\/p>\n

Hanson was located outside the home around 6:53 a.m. the next day.<\/p>\n

Three Misdemeanor Counts Filed<\/h2>\n

Each charge carries a maximum penalty of 90 days in jail. Each charge also carries a possible $1,000 fine.<\/p>\n

Those penalties would apply only after a conviction. The case remains pending in Clay County District Court.<\/p>\n
