A man was arraigned Wednesday on the charge of assault of a family or household member by impeding breath or circulation.
On Sunday, Killeen police officers went to a residence in the 100 block of South Twin Creek Drive in Killeen in reference to a violent domestic disturbance.
The caller said that her ex-boyfriend choked her and pushed her around, according to an arrest affidavit.
The caller told police she came home after meeting with a friend and found Lewis Albert Mallette III in her residence.
When the woman told Mallette that she was seeing someone new, Mallette took her phone away and when she tried to get it back, Mallette grabbed her throat and slammed her to the floor, according to the affidavit.
