A man was arrested after driving around with multiple open beers and a suspended license.

A 34-year-old Carson City man was arrested Wednesday afternoon after deputies were dispatched to a residence in the 700 block of Hot Springs Road on report of a domestic assault. 

Dispatch advised a caller had advised their family member was holding his wife in their apartment and refusing to let her and her baby leave. 

Deputies arrived on scene and spoke to the wife, who said she and her husband had been fighting all day over their cat urinating on the carpet. She said the husband’s behavior became aggressive and it scared her, so she tried to leave the room. 

She said he threw an object at her face while she was holding the baby in her arms, which struck her in the right side of her forehead. 

She said she went to hide in her bedroom and locked the door. While in the room, she crouched over and covered the baby, when the husband managed to get through the door and enter the room. She said he stood over her and “pulled the baby out of her hands by force.” 

At this point she said she heard the husband’s family member enter the apartment, but the husband told the family member to leave. 

Deputies observed redness covering the entirety of the right side of the wife’s forehead in the shape of a triangle, which they found consistent with her statement. They also observed several red marks on her neck in the shape of a circle approximately 1/2 inch wide. 

Deputies asked how her neck was injured, and she said it probably happened when the husband took the baby from her by force. She was unable to identify what she had been hit with. 

Deputies spoke to the husband who said he was angry after arguing all day and threw a vape “towards the kitchen wall.” He said he threw a pacifier at the direction of the front door, but “did not know that [wife] was standing in the direction he threw the pacifier.” 

He said he went to the bedroom where the wife was and took the baby from her, but that he did not use force to take the baby. 

Deputies found his statement of throwing a pacifier inconsistent with the wife’s injuries, as well as the statement that he took the baby without force considering the injuries on her neck. 

Deputies spoke with the family member, who said their spouse told them the wife needed help and wouldn’t let her leave. The family member went to the residence and heard shouting from inside the apartment. They entered the apartment, but was told to leave by the husband, so they stood nearby until law enforcement arrived. 

The husband was taken into custody and booked at the Carson City Jail for domestic battery first. 

Bail: $3,137

Man arrested for felony shoplifting

— A 56-year-old California man was arrested of felony grand larceny after allegedly shoplifting items from a big box store on Clear Creek Road. 

Deputies responded to the store around 6:33 p.m. on Wednesday on report of a larceny and met with employees who identified the man as Reginald Eugene Ento. Deputies on scene investigated the incident and determined nothing had been stolen. 

However, 20 minutes later, the store called again and stated they had reviewed the camera footage and observed Ento leave the store with numerous items amounting to approximately $3,300. 

Deputies returned to the area and located Ento, who was still on scene. Ento was detained while additional deputies spoke with the store employees. 

Employees provided an itemized receipt of all the items Ento left with, and deputies took him into custody. 

Bail: $5,000

69-year-old arrested for driving with suspended license, opened beers

— A 69-year-old Carson City man was arrested for driving with a suspended drivers license for failing to appear in court, and driving with an open container. 

The man was detained at a grocery store on E. William Street around 7 p.m. Wednesday after deputies witnessed a vehicle failing to maintain a travel lane, which was also deriving approximately 25 mph in a 35 mph zone. 

Deputies made contact with the driver, who said he was using his cell phone because he works for DoorDash, which is why he went over the line. 

The man provided his license, which dispatch advised had been revoked and he also had an active warrant for his arrest out of Washoe County for failure to appear. 

The man was detained, and deputies noted he had the smell of an unknown alcoholic beverage emitting from his person. The man provided a PBT, but the results were only 0.020. 

Deputies ordered the car towed, and while searching the vehicle located two open beer cans in the front seat, and an additional two unopened cans in the backseat, all of which were cold to the touch. 

The man was taken into custody and transported to the jail without incident.
