Officials said the argument originated from who would be driving the car.
SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Police Department says a man has been arrested after allegedly assaulting his pregnant girlfriend before leaving with her kids.
Around 5 p.m., SAPD responded to the 2300 block of Castroville Road after receiving reports of an assault in progress.
Upon arrival, police found a pregnant woman bleeding from her nose. She told officers that her boyfriend threw a can or bottle at her before while they were at the west-side Family Dollar after an argument about who was going to drive the car.
After the assault, the suspect reportedly took her two kids with him. Police said only one of the kids he brought with him was also his child.
Authorities quickly found the suspect and arrested him.
He is facing a charge of assault on a pregnant person and could possibly face another charge for taking the child that didn’t belong to him.
