Man arrested for assault at Northern

A Havre man, Charles Anthony Combs, 20, is in the Hill County Detention Center, charged with felony assault and misdemeanor assault, resulting from a fracas in Morgan Hall at Montana State University-Northern this morning.

Police were still piecing together the particulars of the incident this morning, but it appeared that the incident began when Combs assaulted his girlfriend, Police Chief Gabe Matosich said.

Others in the dorm rushed to her defense, he said. Combs had a knife in his possession, but it appeared the only person to suffer any injuries was Combs himself. Police said the injuries were minor and involved no broken bones.

He was taken to the detention center and is being held without bond, Matosich said,

Police will finish their report today and present it to the Hill County attorney’s office, the chief said.
