A 49-year-old Independence Township man faces potential charges of domestic assault, aggravated assault, and resisting a police officer after a Nov. 9 incident on Wellesley Terrace.
Oakland County Sheriff deputies responded to a report of a 9-1-1 hangup. Upon entry, they found both the suspect and his wife bleeding, reports said.
Deputies had to wrestle with the man, reports said, finding it necessary to apply a single Taser shot to his leg.
The woman said she fought back after her husband injured her. She was found with abrasions to the forehead and bridge of her nose, and an earring had been ripped from her ear.
Independence Township Fire Department paramedics treated both at the scene, and the suspect was taken to the North Oakland Medical Center before being taken to the Oakland County Jail.
