27-year-old Bryan Daniel Murray had a domestic altercation with Rachel Mick, his girlfriend, in their blue Chevy Malibu on Dover Road in the early hours of August 24th. Responding officers observed Mick wearing a black tank top and jeans shorts, crying and bleeding from her hand. Officers then noticed Murray kneeling with his hands on the back of his head. After noticing this, the police approached Murray and placed him in handcuffs because he was 6’5” and 200 pounds, and their backup was about 15 minutes away.
Then, officers spoke with Mick, who stated that while driving down the road, Murray had become enraged and started punching the dashboard. She said she was in fear and pulled the car over to the shoulder lane, where she tried getting out and calling 911. However, when she did this, Murray grabbed her phone. Mick stated that despite this, she was still able to retrieve her phone and alert the authorities. She explained that when she tried to exit the vehicle, Murray grabbed her right arm, leaving a fresh bruise with clear fingerprints outlined and a laceration on her right middle finger. Murray was taken into custody for domestic assault and interfering with a 911 call.
