DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SENDS VICTIM TO THE HOSPITAL

A Yucca Valley man was arrested after his ex-girlfriend went to the hospital for injuries she sustained during an argument. According to a Sheriff’s report, Jason Crepeau, 34, went to his girlfriend’s home Monday morning. The woman told deputies that during an argument, Crepeau punched and kicked her, giving her a bruise on her forehead. The woman went to the emergency room about 1:35 p.m. complaining of pain, and hospital personnel notified the Sheriff’s Department. The report states Crepeau denied punching his ex-girlfriend, but says he admitted “things got out of hand and that he pushed her.” Jason Crepeau was arrested about 3:30 p.m. near Apache and Pueblo Trails on suspicion of felony spouse abuse, booked at the Morongo Basin Jail, with his bail set at $50,000.
