EAST WINDSOR A township man was sent to jail this week charged with assaulting a woman with a knife in the Abbington Drive apartment they shared.
Peter Husinko, 39, was charged with aggravated assault, criminal restraint and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. He was sent to the Mercer County Correction Center on $25,000 full bail after an incident early Tuesday morning.
Police said a female victim told them Mr. Husinko held a knife to her throat, causing a minor injury, following an argument. She also told police Mr. Husinko held her on the kitchen floor and choked her before she was able to escape and call them around 3:25 a.m.
Mr. Husinko left the scene before police arrived but was later taken into custody.
The victim refused medial treatment, police said.
