Zoe Dowling drunkenly assaults husband for not letting her drive

27-year-old Zoe Ashtyn Dowling had a domestic dispute with her husband, Chase Michael, at Days Inn in the early hours of December 16th. A hotel guest said they heard screaming and alerted the authorities. Officers arrived, heard screaming from the third-floor room, and interviewed both parties. Michael advised them that Dowling was trying to leave in their car after an argument, insisted he did not physically harm Dowling, and that he only stood by the door to keep her from driving intoxicated. Officers observed his torn shirt and a scratch on his shoulder and face. Dowling stated that she was screaming during the argument, initially denying any attack occurring before admitting to hitting him in the room. Michael did not wish to prosecute. Dowling was taken into custody for domestic assault.
