Bemidji Man Charged With Felony Domestic Assault<\/h2>\n

Bemidji<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Anthony James White faces a felony domestic assault charge in Beltrami County.<\/p>\n

The charge follows a reported incident on July 13, 2026, at a Bemidji residence.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors allege White assaulted a partner and caused an injury near her eyebrow.<\/p>\n

The allegations are detailed in a Beltrami County District Court complaint.<\/p>\n

Police Respond to Bemidji Residence<\/h2>\n

Bemidji police responded to a reported domestic assault at about 9:05 p.m.<\/p>\n

Officers spoke with a woman identified in court records as L.M.<\/p>\n

L.M. told police that White struck her while she was lying on a bed.<\/p>\n

An officer reported seeing redness and slight swelling above her eyebrow.<\/p>\n

The officer believed the injury was consistent with being struck, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

Police found White inside the residence and questioned him about the allegation.<\/p>\n

White denied assaulting L.M. and said she caused the injury herself.<\/p>\n

Investigators examined White’s hands and reported seeing no injuries linked to punching someone.<\/p>\n
