Washington County, Fla. (WDNews) — A 21-year-old Ebro man is facing a felony charge after allegedly assaulting his mother during a domestic disturbance earlier this week.
According to officials, the victim told deputies that her son, Jayden Reid Haines, punched her during a verbal argument. Haines initially left the home but returned soon after. When the victim tried to drive away, Haines got into the vehicle and repeatedly turned it off to prevent her from leaving.
She eventually managed to get to the hospital, where she informed staff that she did not want Haines present. Deputies later located the vehicle he was driving and pulled him over in Washington County. During questioning, Haines reportedly admitted to the assault.
The victim suffered serious injuries, including a broken nose, busted lip requiring stitches, facial lacerations, and the loss of a tooth.
Haines was arrested and booked into the Washington County Jail. He is charged with felony aggravated battery.
