[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] A man in his 20s who attempted an extreme act after trying to retaliate against his ex-girlfriend who reported him for dating violence was arrested in the act.
The Gwangju Western Police Station announced on the 20th that they have detained and are investigating A (27) on charges of assault, confinement, and trespassing.
A is accused of unlawfully entering the residence of his ex-girlfriend in Ssangchon-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City on the 19th and causing a disturbance.
He entered the house and caused a commotion by calling the 119 emergency center, saying he would jump, but was stopped by the responding police officers.
