An Amana man is in the Johnson County Jail after he allegedly attacked his estranged wife and bit her new boyfriend.
Jesse Keith Hill, 30, was arrested early Friday morning for first-degree burglary, domestic abuse and assault causing bodily injury after he allegedly broke into his estranged wife’s Tiffin apartment and attacked her and her new boyfriend.
According to the arrest report, Hill kicked in the front door of his wife’s apartment after yelling at her and ringing the door bell several times just before 1 a.m. Once inside, he got into a physical fight with the alleged victims, biting the unidentified boyfriend on his abdomen, taking a small chunk of skin away, and biting his left arm, the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office said.
Hill also struck him in the face, leaving a lump on his cheek, and left a five-inch scratch on his wife’s back and left shoulder during the attack, according to the arrest report. Hill then fled in a truck before officers could arrive, but was arrested a short time later, the arrest report said.
The estranged wife and her boyfriend refused medical attention for their injuries, police said.
Hill remains in the Johnson County Jail on a $30,000 cash only bond. If convicted of all charges, he faces up to 27 years in prison.
