Prosecutors allege Aguilar punched her sister in the face during an argument in Ada on August 3, 2026.<\/p>\n
The alleged assault left her sister with a swollen and bleeding lip, according to a criminal complaint.<\/p>\n
The case is filed in Minnesota’s Ninth Judicial District under court file number 54-CR-26-251.<\/p>\n
Argument on Deck Allegedly Turned Physical<\/h2>\n
According to court documents, Ada police responded to a reported domestic assault on August 3.<\/p>\n
The alleged victim told investigators she had been arguing with her sister, Amber Aguilar.<\/p>\n
The argument reportedly took place on the deck of a residence in Ada.<\/p>\n
The woman told police that the verbal disagreement became physical when Aguilar struck her in the face.<\/p>\n
The complaint describes the woman’s injuries as a swollen lip with bleeding.<\/p>\n
Authorities used these allegations as part of the probable cause supporting the criminal charge.<\/p>\n
The complaint does not describe the subject of the argument or identify any weapon.<\/p>\n
Previous Domestic Assault Conviction Cited<\/h2>\n
Prosecutors charged Aguilar with gross misdemeanor domestic assault rather than a misdemeanor offense.<\/p>\n
The complaint cites a previous qualifying domestic violence-related conviction.<\/p>\n
Court documents identify a domestic assault conviction dated July 3, 2024.<\/p>\n
That conviction is associated with Norman County court file number 54-CR-23-341.<\/p>\n
Under Minnesota law, a previous qualifying conviction can increase the severity of a new domestic assault charge.<\/p>\n
The prior conviction falls within the 10-year period specified in the statute.<\/p>\n
What Minnesota Law Says About Domestic Assault<\/h2>\n
The current charge is filed under Minnesota Statute 609.2242, subdivision 2.<\/p>\n
The law covers certain assaults against family or household members when a qualifying previous conviction exists.<\/p>\n
Domestic assault can involve intentionally causing bodily harm or attempting to inflict such harm.<\/p>\n
A gross misdemeanor conviction carries a maximum penalty of 364 days in jail.<\/p>\n
The law also allows a maximum fine of $3,000, or both penalties.<\/p>\n
These are possible penalties, not a sentence imposed against Aguilar.<\/p>\n
