JOLIET — The Joliet Police Department has put 29-year-old Lockport resident David Chicola in the Will County Jail in connection with Thursday night’s violence incident in Joliet’s downtown.
Chicola was booked into the jail on charges of domestic battery, aggravated battery to a peace officer, aggravated assault and resisting a peace officer.
Joliet police spokesman Dwayne English provided the following summary related to the events of the Lockport man’s arrest:
At 11:36 p.m., an officer on patrol near 20 East Cass Street saw a woman on the ground with an injury to her face. As the officer approached to provide aid, a male, later identified as Chicola, approached the officer in an aggressive fashion.
“It was determined that Chicola was the husband of the female,” English announced.
Once the officer indicated an ambulance would be called for the woman, Chicola grew angry and pushed past an officer while threatening the officer. As the officer tried to further assist the victim, Chicola pushed the officer’s arm away.
Joliet police believe that the victim had been struck in the face by Chicola.
