A South Coffeyville man is arrested for a domestic violence incident. 32-year-old Ricky Bryant was arrested earlier this week by the Nowata County Sheriff's Office. Bryant was arrested for domestic assault and battery in the presence of a minor and threatening to commit acts of violence.

A Nowata County Deputy was called to an address east of South Coffeyville for a fight in progress. A joint investigation with the South Coffeyville Police Department revealed an argument escalated and Bryant is accused of punching someone at the residence. When another family member intervened, Bryant attempted to strike him. This family member "karate chopped" Bryant on the nose to stop him. Bryant is currently incarcerated on a $10,000 bond.
