A 47 year old man has been arrested in Torre del Mar for allegedly assaulting his wife and threatening to kill her.
At around 12:30 on Tuesday, police received a call from the daughter saying that her father was attacking her mother, the incident taking place in calle Maestro Genaro Rincón.
Police went to the house where the woman stated that she had been attacked and that the husband had thrown the TV on the floor during the incident. The woman had bruising on her arm.
The victim stated that this was not the first violent incident and she had reported several previous incidents, the last being in March of this year. She stated that her husband had problems with their daughter as well as a drinking problem.
