On 04-13-2021 at about 11:35 AM a Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputy was dispatched to contact a possible assault victim located at Adventist Health Howard Memorial hospital in Willits, California.
Upon arrival, the Deputy was advised an adult female had been in a physical altercation with her boyfriend (Steven White) in the 2200 block of Primrose Drive in Willits, California.
The Deputy learned the adult female and White engaged in a mutual argument. During the argument White grabbed a hold of the adult female’s hand and squeezed it causing an injury to her hand.
The adult female feared for her safety so she punched White in the face causing a visible injury to his lip.
