Timmy Carter Jr.

On Feb. 18, Timmy Carter Jr., 23, Appleton City, was arrested on a St. Clair County warrant charging him with class A misdemeanor domestic assault fourth degree. Bond is set at $5,000 cash or surety.

The charge stems from a St. Clair County Sheriff’s Office investigation on Feb. 1, when deputies were called to Ellett Memorial Hospital, Appleton City, in reference to a female assault victim. 

The victim stated her boyfriend, Timmy Carter Jr., punched her in the face three times with a closed fist and spit in her face. 

The deputy noticed the victim’s right eye was swollen and bruising was beginning to appear.
