Vincent Terlaje, 40, was arrested on charges of strangulation, assault and battery, and disturbing the peace. <\/p>\n
At a hearing yesterday, Superior Court Associate Judge Joseph N. Camacho imposed a $10,000 cash bail.<\/p>\n

According to detective Buddy S. Igitol, police officers responded to a disturbance call at an apartment in As Lito last Saturday at 2:39am.<\/p>\n
Igitol said the officer met the caller, who stated that when he called his cousin on the phone she appeared to have been crying due to a domestic violence incident with her boyfriend, Terlaje.<\/p>\n
The officer, along with two other officers, checked Terlaje\u2019s residence in As Terlaje, where they saw the two.<\/p>\n
The girlfriend told the officers that Terlaje strangled her minutes prior to their arrival.<\/p>\n
The girlfriend alleged that they had argument when her phone constantly rang and he refused to give it to her.<\/p>\n
Terlaje also allegedly refused her request to drop her back home.<\/p>\n
She got off the vehicle and started to walk from the home\u2019s premises. Terlaje allegedly pulled her hair and shoved her. He allegedly strangled her for a couple of seconds. She felt disoriented and told him she was feeling like she was going to pass out. <\/p>\n
She told police it was not the first time that her boyfriend had strangled her.<\/p>\n
Police said Terlaje denied the accusation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
