36-year-old Donald Whittier was charged with aggravated assault when he got into an argument with another man that turned physical when he somehow cut his testicles, per report.
On August 16th, Officer Tribbett arrived at a domestic in progress at 2385 Old Ashland City Road and identified the defendant, Donald Whittier. He was sitting on the front porch and told police that he and the victim, Jerry Akins, were arguing earlier which turned physical.
They went inside to speak to Akins who showed them a cut he had on his testicles. He said that it was Whittier who cut his testicles but he did not know what he used to cut him. Whittier said it was possibly his fingernail that caused the injury. Medics were called to advise on the situation even after Akins refused medical treatment. They informed the officers that the laceration was not consistent with a fingernail scratch but rather by a sharp object.
Donald Whittier was arrested and charged with aggravated assault. His bond was set at $5,000.
