GP Man Jailed for Roughing Up Girlfriend and Damaging Items at Her House
A Grants Pass man was jailed for roughing up his girlfriend and destroying items at her southeast city residence last weekend.
Grants Pass Police responded to the domestic disturbance in the 1800-block of SE Portola Drive on Sunday at about 1 a.m..
Police said 33-year-old Ethan James Carter was determined to be the aggressor in a physical altercation with his girlfriend. They said the woman sustained physical injuries and there was property damage to her residence as a result of the fracas.
The female victim had called 9-1-1 to report that Carter had a gun, he had "choked her out" and she was bleeding. She requested medical attention and stated that her boyfriend had been drinking. The suspect fled the home before the arrival of law enforcement, but he was located a short time later and placed into custody.
Ethan Carter was lodged at the Josephine County Jail for 4th-Degree Domestic Assault and 2nd-Degree Criminal Mischief. He was being held without bail.
