A 97-year-old Redhead man is due to face court next month accused of breaking his wife’s neck and leg during a domestic dispute.
Paramedics were called to a home in Kerle Street at 7 o’clock last night to reports an 80-year-old woman had suffered significant injuries – it’s alleged her husband pushed her over during an argument.
Chief Inspector Dean Olsen says the elderly man has been charged over the incident.
“(he) was taken to Belmont Police Station and charge with assault occasioning grievous bodily harm and has been granted conditional bail to face Belmont Local Court in July,” he said.
