A 21-year-old Nowata man faces charges of domestic assault in Washington County.
Deontae Hicks is being held in the Washington County Jail in Bartlesville on two misdemeanor counts of domestic assault and battery after three separate incidents with the same female victim.
An affidavit states that on December 19th, Hicks broke the victim's nose. Two days later, it is alleged that he struck and then bit the victim. The affidavit then states that on the next day, Hicks hit the same victim in the face again. Officers observed the victim had two black eyes, a bite mark and swelling around her eyes and nose. The female did have to go to the hospital because of the injuries she sustained.
Hicks is being held on a $25,000 bond. His next court date is set for January 8th.
