A New Kensington man has been charged with aggravated assault after city police say he chased and hit a woman with a hammer and threatened to kill her last week, according to a criminal complaint.
Ryan Christopher Grabigel, 40, is free on $10,000 bond while awaiting a preliminary hearing before District Judge Jason Buczak in Washington Township. A date for the hearing had not been set as of early Tuesday afternoon.
Grabigel was arrested the day of the incident, which took place at his Edgewood Road home on Dec. 16, police said. He was released from Westmoreland County Prison the following day after posting $10,000 bail.
