Beatrice Police responded to a family argument call Sunday, resulting in the arrest of 41-year-old Eric Ault. Upon arrival, Ault reportedly told the officer that he was punched over an argument about rent, and that as a result he restrained an unnamed woman. The officer reported seeing markings on the woman’s body consistent with her report, and no markings on Ault’s face or neck area where he reported being hit. Ault reported that he did not grab the woman by her neck. Ault was arrested and transported to the Gage County Detention Center and charged with strangulation and domestic abuse.
