On 9/29/23, Mt. Carmel Police arrested Landon S. Harms, age 18, of Mt. Carmel for Aggravated Domestic Battery following a domestic dispute at his residence in the 400 block of N Pear Street.  Police were called to the scene after Harms allegedly threw a computer monitor while playing a video game.  When another family member told him he would have to leave the home, he became confrontational and aggressive.  This angered Harms causing him to try and strike another resident with a steel ball wrapped in paracord.  While the victim was able to avoid the strike, the two went to the floor where a struggle ensued.  Harms struck the other party in the nose with his elbow followed by repeated punches to the subject’s head with his fist.  Harms transitioned to a choke hold on the subject before finally being stopped.  Based on this information, police placed Harms under arrest for the above stated offense and transported him to the Wabash County Jail.  Harms is being held pending a pre-trial detention determination by the court.
