He overheard her calling someone to come take him away, so he slapped her. The officer did not see any marks on her face, and she did not want medical attention.

Criminal trespass, reckless conduct — On Deveraux Road, a woman was returning home when her ex-boyfriend began walking toward her. He came from Woodridge Mobile Home Park, where he sometimes lives. He wanted to talk to her about continuing their relationship, even though she recently broke it off. She didn’t want to talk to him because she was scared of him, and when she told him to leave, he hit her car’s windshield, causing it to shatter.

The broken glass fell onto the complainant, causing her to bleed. Her 12-year-old son was also in the car when this happened. She drove away from her ex-boyfriend and returned home.
