San Marcos Domestic Violence Victim Arrested On Pending Warrant
A man, who was stabbed by his girlfriend during a domestic dispute was later arrested at the hospital on a felony warrant, the North County Times reports. Police responded to a domestic violence incident in the 200 block of Knoll Road in San Marcos where a man was stabbed and was en route to an area hospital.
When police interviewed the victim at the hospital, they found out that he had a felony warrant for his arrest. The man’s injuries are not life threatening and he will be arrested when he recovers. Police are reportedly interviewing the woman under suspicion of domestic violence in San Marcos and trying to determine what happened.
Domestic violence cases are more aggressively prosecuted today than ever before because police and prosecutors are receiving funding from several special interest groups devoted to the cause of domestic violence. The circumstances of arrest in a domestic violence case have changed. Earlier, police would not arrest a man or woman in a domestic dispute in the absence of obvious evidence of serious abuse. Now, police are required to arrest a spouse or partner if one or the other has any visible injury – major or minor – on them.
