Louisa Man Arrested on Assault Charges

Louisa police have arrested Douglas Hayes Brewer and charged him with assault and other charges from an incident Saturday night. 

Police were called to an apartment complex and found a woman outside with a black eye and bleeding wounds.

The woman told police that Brewer had allegedly hit her while she was holding a child and the child was struck during his attack. 

A juvenile came from the apartment and said Brewer had pulled her hair, threw her on the ground, and choked her with his knees. 

Brewer was not on the scene when police arrived but was found on Sunday evening and arrested.
