Two charged with assault
A man and woman were both charged with assault after Brandon police responded to a report about arguing in a residence on the 1300 block of Princess Avenue.
Police were called on Sunday at 9:24 a.m. by a person who said they could hear screaming and items being thrown around.
When officers arrived, they were told by a man and a woman that each had been assaulted, and had visible injuries on their faces, according to a police news release.
Both people, a 26-year-old man and 22-year-old woman, were released with a promise to appear in court for their assault charges — June 30 for the man and July 3 for the woman.
