    A Mountain Home man, 41-year-old Steven Dewayne Howell, has been charged with felony aggravated assault for a domestic disturbance, on Baxter County Road 202, Wednesday afternoon. Howell also faces other misdemeanor charges related to the incident and is being held in the Baxter County Jail on a $15,000 bond.
    According to Baxter County Sheriff John Montgomery, a Norfork police officer first arrived on the scene where victims and witnesses alleged Howell assaulted a female and chased her down the road. When the woman's father came to the residence, statements made say Howell had a knife and threatened to kill the man.
    Montgomery says Howell appeared to be under the influence of some type of controlled substance and resisted arrest.
    He is scheduled to appear in Baxter County Circuit Court in late March.
