On Sunday, 08-14-2016, deputies from the Gage County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to 15566 East Plum Road, Liberty, Nebraska for a report of domestic assault.

Deputies and an Investigator from the sheriff’s office obtained information from the victim that she had been arguing with her husband around 2300 hours on Sunday, when he struck her, pushed her into a wall, then pinned her down on the bed and attempted to strangle her, causing her breathing to be impeded and leaving marks on her neck.  When she attempted to leave in the morning she was walking west on East Plum Road near South 148th Road, when he pulled up beside her in a vehicle and began cursing and screaming at her, and he swerved the vehicle to the right, striking her with the front of the car and knocking her to the ground.

An investigator and a deputy located Shawn J. Hatfield, age 42, in the bedroom of his residence at 15566 East Plum Road and arrested him for domestic assault and strangulation.  Hatfield was transported to the Gage County jail.
