A Bartlesville man is facing a domestic abuse charge after an incident late last week.

 29-year-old James Tiry was arrested after the victim contacted police to report the incident. Court documents say Tiry had thrown a 32 0z. cup of pop at the victim. The victim also says they were struck by a hatchet in their face.

 Tiry says he blacked out and that he remembers throwing the pop and the hatchet, but does not remember either object hitting the victim. Officers observed a small cut above the victim’s right eye that was consistent with her story of being struck by the hatchet.

 Tiry is being held on $20,000 bond; his next Washington County Court date was set for May 26th. Tiry is also ordered to have no contact with the victim.
