13-year-old knocks man unconscious during alleged strangling of mother, deputies say
An Alabama man was arrested after authorities said he allegedly tried to strangle his wife before being knocked unconscious by his 13-year-old stepson during the incident.
Daniel Hernandez-Lopez, 32, faces a charge of domestic violence by strangulation, according to the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies responded to a home in Foley, Alabama, around 8 p.m. Monday after reports that Hernandez-Lopez was attempting to strangle his wife during an argument, Fox 10 reported.
Authorities said the woman’s 13-year-old son confronted Hernandez-Lopez, who then lunged at the teen and attempted to strike him with a bicycle.
The teen allegedly punched Hernandez-Lopez several times in the face, knocking him unconscious before deputies arrived, the sheriff’s office said.
Hernandez-Lopez appeared to be intoxicated and possibly under the influence of narcotics, according to the station.
Officials also said Hernandez-Lopez is not a U.S. citizen, Fox 10 reported.
He was booked into the Baldwin County Jail on Tuesday.
It was not immediately clear whether Hernandez-Lopez has an attorney who could comment on the allegations.
