Fulton County authorities have arrested 29-year-old Devoun Roe following an incident in which he allegedly assaulted his girlfriend while she was behind the wheel of a vehicle, causing her to wreck the car striking a tree. Roe’s address was not available in online court documents.

According to the probable cause affidavit, law enforcement responded to the domestic in progress, finding the wrecked vehicle.

The victim said she and Roe had been in an argument, and she attempted to leave. Roe allegedly jumped in the window of her car, striking her in the face and head, causing her vehicle to hit the tree, disabling the vehicle.

The woman said she grabbed her 4-year-old son and was holding him in an effort to protect him.

During the altercation, Roe was reportedly trying to kick the woman, dragging her from the car. In the process, Roe is alleged to have kicked the minor child in the shoulder, causing marks matched to the shoes the man was wearing.

An ambulance arrived and transported the victim to the Fulton County Hospital.

Roe is charged with two felony counts of aggravated assault on a family or household member and one for endangering the welfare of a minor. His bond is set at $5,000.
