The husband called 911 after his wife reportedly pushed him from behind, according to the police report. The woman had told her husband she wanted a divorce, so he offered to pack her things.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The husband said to officers that his wife then followed him into their bedroom and pushed him from behind, knocking him into a computer table and a headboard. He said he hit his head on the headboard and his ankle on the bed frame. He said he believed his wife wanted to provoke him to hit her.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After the husband called 911, he sat on a couch with the couple’s 1-year-old child. He said he did not want to give the child to his wife, who wanted to leave. The wife then reportedly slapped her husband in the face and took the child.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The wife returned home with the child while officers were at the house. The wife told police she had pushed her husband but didn’t slap him. She said she was frustrated with her husband so she pushed him.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
