A 39-year-old man was arrested yesterday morning for allegedly beating up his girlfriend at knifepoint at his residence in San Vicente last week. <\/p>\n
Anthony Joseph Sakisat Camacho was arrested for assault with a dangerous weapon, assault and battery, assault, and disturbing the peace.<\/p>\n
At a hearing yesterday, Superior Court Associate Judge Joseph N. Camacho imposed a $10,000 cash bail and appointed assistant public defender Cindy Nesbit as counsel for the defendant. Assistant attorney general Barbara Cepeda appeared for the government. <\/p>\n
Preliminary hearing will be on March 7 at 9am.<\/p>\n
Police Detective Peter A. Aldan stated in his report that the alleged victim filed the complaint against defendant Camacho last Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Aldan said according to the victim, she went to Camacho\u2019s residence on board a taxicab in the evening last Feb. 21.<\/p>\n
Camacho allegedly ran out of the house as she was walking back to the taxi, then grabbed her hair and dragged her into the house.<\/p>\n
Inside the house, the defendant allegedly punched her head while accusing her of having an affair.<\/p>\n
The victim said that last Wednesday afternoon Camacho accused her again of having an affair and repeatedly punched her face and head and kicked her back.<\/p>\n
She said she could not escape because during the beating, the defendant was pointing the tip of a knife at her stomach.<\/p>\n
That night, she escaped when Camacho walked into Lucky De Mart in Dandan, leaving her inside the car. She drove the car and called a police officer. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
