A Twentynine Palms man who threw a beer bottle at a 10-year-old boy following an argument with the boy’s mother was arrested Saturday, accused of assault and spouse abuse. According to a Sheriff’s report, Christopher Myers, 38, was arguing with a woman in the 75800 block of Baseline Road about 9:30 p.m. Saturday night when he threw a beer bottle at the woman’s 10-year-old son.
