Mt. Carmel Man Jailed Following Domestic Altercation

On 7/12/14, Mt. Carmel Police arrested Krieg J. Addison, age 21, of Mt. Carmel for Aggravated Domestic Battery and Endangering the Life of a Child following a domestic dispute between a couple at a residence in the 500 block of W 5th Street.  Police were called to the scene following a 911 call regarding an ongoing physical domestic.  Mt. Carmel Police and a deputy from the Wabash County Sheriff’s Office arrived.  The deputy observed Addison pulling the female victim across the front room by the feet.  This resulted in Addison being detained pending further investigation.  The investigation uncovered evidence to indicate Addison had battered the female victim by striking her in the face and choking her, based on these visible injuries, among others.  Addison was placed under arrest and transported to the Wabash County Jail.  The additional charge of child endangerment stemmed from the domestic incident occurring in the presence of two children.  Wabash General Ambulance Service also assisted at the scene.  Addison is being held pending a pre-trial release determination by the court.
