Two Arrested on Separate Assault Charges

Police on St. John arrested two men on separate assault charges earlier this week. One suspect threatened a victim, and the other case involved domestic violence.

Victor Rosa, 31, was arrested just before 3 a.m. Tuesday and charged with aggravated assault and battery/domestic violence for allegedly grabbing his wife by the shirt and slapping her in the face. Bail was denied due to the domestic charge.

Buster Brady, 50, was arrested shortly before 8 p.m. Monday and charged with third-degree assault for threatening a victim with a machete. Bail was set at $25,000.

Both suspects were remanded to the Bureau of Corrections pending further court action.
