37-year-old Justin Everett Simon had a domestic incident with his girlfriend, Bria Lewis, at their apartment at The Edison at Riverwood on Dodson Chapel Road in the early hours of February 11th. Officers arrived and observed Lewis with multiple injuries to her face, next to her vehicle when she stated an unknown male attacked her. Lewis was transported to the hospital for medical treatment. Once Lewis was at the hospital, officers received another call for service regarding Lewis not telling the whole truth. Lewis advised that her current boyfriend, Simon, was the one who assaulted her. Lewis told officers that when she and Simon returned home from a hookah bar, he started accusing her of cheating on him. Lewis said when they got to the apartment complex, he forced her out of the vehicle, causing her to fall to the ground. Simon continued to yell at her about the alleged infidelity while they waited for the elevator. When they got inside their apartment, the argument continued when he began to call her racial slurs, berating her. Simon then pushed her to the ground and stepped on her stomach. Lewis told him that she was not cheating on him, and Simon became upset, shoving her face onto the floor and punching her several times. Simon continued his assault by placing her in a chokehold to strangle her. While doing so, Simon told her, “You’re going to sleep you f*cking wh*re!” Lewis said this was when she grabbed his genitals, scratched, and kicked him in the throat, causing him to flee the scene. Lewis’ left eye was swollen shut, and her face was bruised with minor cuts. Simon was taken into custody for domestic assault, strangulation, and harassment threats.
