(KAIR)--A domestic disturbance, allegedly occurring early Sunday morning at an Atchison residence, left a woman injured and the alleged assailant facing charges.

According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, 26-year-old Dwayne Lacey, Jr., was arrested Monday evening on charges including aggravated domestic battery, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, and domestic battery tied to the disturbance.

Wilson says his office, on Monday morning, "became aware" of the alleged disturbance that had occurred around 4:00 Sunday morning at a residence in the 1100 block of Kearney where a 28-year-old woman suffered injuries after being threatened and injured with what police allege were a knife, a belt, and fists. She did not require medical treatment.

The resulting investigation, Wilson says, led officers to Lacey, who was taken into custody Monday evening in the 500 block of Kansas Avenue.

Following his arrest, Lacey was booked into the Atchison County Jail.

According to online jail records, Lacey has since been released on a $50,000 bond.
