Man accused of assault on ex-girlfriend

BOARDMAN — A Boardman man was arrested after assaulting his ex-girlfriend and kicking down the door she had locked herself behind, according to police reports.

Nagle was arrested on charges of domestic violence and unlawful restraint. He was scheduled to appear in court this morning.
