An Ontario County woman was arrested early Monday morning after deputies said she violated an order of protection and assaulted another person during a domestic incident at a motel in Hopewell.
The Ontario County Sheriff’s Office said deputies responded to Patty’s Lodge on Route 5 and 20 around 1 a.m. for a reported family trouble complaint.
Following an investigation, deputies arrested Chuncey I. Ward, 40, of Hopewell, on charges of first-degree criminal contempt, third-degree criminal mischief, and third-degree assault.
Authorities alleged Ward violated an order of protection issued through Hopewell Town Court, caused approximately $290 in property damage, and bit the protected party, leaving a wound.
Ward was transported to the Ontario County Jail, where deputies said she was being held pending further court proceedings.
