An Iowa City man was arrested early Monday after an alleged assault on the woman he’s been living with.
According to arrest reports, an argument between 26-year-old Juquan Glinsey and the woman began before 12:30am in the bedroom of their South Scott Boulevard residence. Glinsey reportedly put both hands around the woman’s neck and shook her several times. The woman was able to briefly escape Glinsey and fled into a closet. He allegedly proceeded to choke and shake her again.
As officers arrived, Glinsey was leaving the area in his vehicle. They activated top lights for a traffic stop, but he drove around the squad car and drove off at a high rate of speed. A chase ensued, with Glinsey reportedly driving at least 25 miles per hour over the speed limit. The officer lost sight of the vehicle.
Another officer found the vehicle and initiated another traffic stop; this time Glinsey pulled into a gas station. Glinsey’s daughter was in the vehicle with him.
Police say the victim had several red marks on her neck and chest area, and she said she was in fear for her life. The woman’s two children, and Glinsey’s daughter were sleeping in the next room while the altercation was taking place.
Glinsey was taken into custody and charged with Domestic Abuse Assault impeding airflow, Domestic Abuse Assault with intent to inflict Serious Injury, Eluding, and Child Endangerment. If convicted on all counts, he faces up to 11 years in prison.
A no-contact order was requested by the victim.
