Iowa City Police have arrested a man they say attacked a woman while wielding a knife during a domestic incident.
Officers were called to an address on Paddock Circle just after 10:00 Saturday morning. An investigation determined that one of the residents, 68-year-old Mohan Deol, was intoxicated when he grabbed a large kitchen knife and started cutting up furniture. A woman who is not identified in police records tried to stop him, and Deol reportedly responded by swinging the knife at her. The woman locked herself in a bathroom. Deol then allegedly knocked on the door and threatened to kill her.
Deol is charged with Domestic Abuse Assault While Displaying a Weapon, an Aggravated Misdemeanor punishable by a maximum of two years in jail.
