THE COP SHOP
VIOLENCE AT FAIRGROUNDS
Police arrested a 53-year-old man at the North Texas Fairgrounds Wednesday night after he attacked two people, according to a report. A 57-year-old man called about 8:30 p.m. asking for help. He said he saw his co-worker attacking the co-worker's girlfriend and he told him he could not stand by and watch him assault a woman. The co-worker raised his hand to hit his girlfriend again, and he slapped him, the victim said. Then all three separated and the victim walked to a portable bathroom on the fairgrounds property. When he emerged the co-worker was waiting with a tire iron and hit him twice in the head, he said. Officers found the girlfriend, who had visible injuries. She agreed to press charges. The officers found the suspect and took him to jail on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, family violence assault and an outstanding warrant from another county for parole violation.
