Great Mills, MD – St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Bowie responded to Castle Pollard Way in Great Mills after an altercation occurred between a woman and her live-in boyfriend, July 5.
When the officer arrived on the scene contact was made with the alleged victim and her live-in boyfriend, Calvin M. Douglas, 31 of St. Inigoes.
The alleged victim advised, “that they were arguing about cigarettes earlier in the day,” according to charging documents.
The alleged victim stated she walked out to the driveway, and Douglas punched her in the left side of her mouth, the charging document reads in part.
Both parties returned to the residence and continued to argue throughout the day until Douglas became aggravated and knocked over a cup of juice that spilled onto the alleged victim and children in the home.
The alleged victim then called the police, according to charging documents.
