A 27-year-old Louisville man is being held in the Floyd County Jail on a $250,000 bond in connection with Wednesday’s assault of a woman in the 1700 block of Millerwood Drive.
Sean M. Hagan, of the 1000 block of Charles Street, is charged with burglary, a class C felony, strangulation, a class D felony, and domestic battery and interference with the reporting of a crime, both class A misdemeanors, according to a New Albany Police Department press release.
The charges against Hagen, who turned himself in to authorities at the City-County Building at about 4 p.m. Thursday, resulted from an investigation after a 28-year-old victim of the assault reported the incident to police at about 11:30 a.m., Wednesday.
