A Des Moines man was arrested on a Dallas County warrant Saturday in connection with a September incident in which he allegedly assaulted a West Des Moines woman in her home for the third or fourth time.
Hatsady Jack Naonady, 41, of 1424 E. Virginia Ave., Des Moines, was charged with second-offense domestic abuse assault-bodily injury or mental illness.
The incident began Sept. 20 at about 1:45 a.m. at a residence in the 7200 block of Lake Drive in West Des Moines, where officers of the West Des Moines Police Department responded to a report of a domestic disturbance.
The officers made contact with the victim, who told the officers that Naonady struck her “on her left cheek, causing bodily injury to the victim,” according to court records.
The victim told the officers that the blow “caused her glasses to fly to the other side of her room” and “caused pain, and her left cheek was tender,” according to court records.
The officers observed the left cheek of the victim “appeared red in color.”
Naonady is held in the Dallas County jail on a $2,000 cash or surety bond. He is scheduled for a preliminary hearing Oct. 16 in Dallas County District Court.
Naonady was arrested in May in West Des Moines on a charge of second-offense domestic abuse assault-bodily injury or mental illness. The case is pending in Dallas County District Court. He was convicted of first-offense domestic abuse assault-bodily injury or mental illness in 2022 in Polk County District Court. He was convicted first-offense domestic abuse assault-bodily injury or mental illness and willful injury causing bodily injury in 2022 in Polk County District Court. He was convicted of assault causing bodily injury or mental illness in 2020 in Polk County District Court. He was convicted of assault while participating in a felong in 2002 in Polk County District Court.
