SPD officers were dispatched around 2:40am on Dec. 21 to the 100 block of Deville Place in response to a domestic disturbance involving physical violence. 

Upon arrival, the officers made contact with the victim, who reported that her ex-boyfriend, identified as Jesus Hernandez (DOB: 10/01/97), forcibly entered her home by shattering the rear door window without her permission. Once inside, Hernandez allegedly attached the victim by slamming her to the floor twice, pulling her hair, and punching her multiple times in the face with a closed fist. 

Officers observed visible injuries on the victim and noted that her clothing was stained with what appeared to be blood. The victim stated that Hernandez held her down using his full body weight and told her she wasn’t going anywhere. In an attempt to escape, the victim bit Hernandez to free herself. 

The victim also disclosed that her two-year-old son was in another room in the house during the incident.

Hernandez was taken into custody by officers and has been charged with the following crimes:

• Home Invasion
• Domestic Abuse Battery with Child Endangerment
• Theft
• False Imprisonment

Fortunately, the victim is expected to recover from her injuries.
