My boyfriend and I just got into a fight and he got arrested?

Question

We were in the car and he was drunk and trying to snatch the keys outta the ignition so I hurried and pulled ova, managed to cut the car off, and snatched the keys out. He struck me twice so I tried to call the cops but he wouldn't let me so I spotted a police car and he came ova got the info and a second cop came to the scene and told i them both he'd been drinking so thats what he got arrested for so I was wondering why didn't the officer let me write a statement? I have pictures of my bruises and I got the arresting officer's name and badge number.

Answer 1

This sounds like domestic violence.  You need to get out of the relationship now.  When he sobers up, he will apologize and swear it will never happen again.  At least not until the next time, when it will be worse.  Domestic violence is a deadly circle that gets worse until it becomes fatal.  Have him charged and get counseling.

Answer 2

go down to the station and ask to fill out a report they will let you once you explain the situation to them.

he was probably arrested on DUI charges and on DV charges (domestic violence)

you can also choose to press charges when you full out the report and talk to an officer.

Answer 3

He was probably just being arrested at that point in time for DUI, not for the altercation. You can still go file a police report and press charges on him if you wish.

Answer 4

what's the question?

Answer 5

better cover up that black eye......ahahahahahahh

Answer 6

why did they arrest him? they had to have charged him with something and if you showed them bruises they either had enough evidence or they took pics.

Answer 7

well it is a domestic violence. so im sure he didnt just get arrested for drinking unless your in some of the few states that dont enforce those laws. once he gets all the information you and your boyfriend gave he puts it in his report and same with the other officer. this is real life not CSI or Law and Order. not every crime involves the victem giving a statement

Answer 8

wonder if big bubba is beating on him?.....or just doing the "male bonding".....
