Bowling Green Police arrested a man for domestic violence after he allegedly injured his girlfriend during an argument. The man, Nicolas Bussard, 22, of Bowling Green, reportedly told police the bruising on his girlfriend must have occurred while they were “cuddling.”
Police responded to Wood County Hospital on Monday (Nov. 9) around 4 p.m., for a report of possible domestic violence that occurred earlier in the day at the man’s apartment in the 200 block of South Mercer Road.
The woman, who is nine weeks pregnant, was being treated for bruising to her upper arm and for possible complications with the pregnancy. She told police that her boyfriend had demanded a paternity test, and grabbed her by the arm. He also reportedly took her keys and cell phone and would not return them.
However, when a package was delivered to his apartment, the woman said she was able to grab her keys and phone, and ran from the residence.
Bussard was arrested and charged with domestic violence, during which he reportedly told police that the bruising must have occurred while he and his girlfriend were “cuddling.” He was taken to Wood County Jail.
