A 24-year-old Temple man faces felony and misdemeanor charges after he was arrested Christmas Day in connection with a Nov. 8 domestic dispute.
Jamaal Marquis Evans was arrested in the 3900 block of Ermine Trail and taken to the Bell County Jail, where his bonds totaled $35,000, records show.
Police spokeswoman Alejandra Arreguin said officers were called to the domestic incident at 9:10 p.m. Nov. 8 in the 2300 block of Saulsbury Drive.
A woman told police Evans, her boyfriend, was caring for her 4-year-old son while she was working. She later observed bruises on the childâs ears, and Evans became agitated when she confronted him. When the victim made a call to get picked up, Evans allegedly began to strike the woman. He fled when he told police were on the way.
