A man was arrested in Harlan after allegedly assaulting a woman in the Taco Bell parking lot.

Travis Rutherford, 32, was arrested by Harlan City Police Department officers on May 6.

According to the citation, officers received a complaint of domestic abuse at Taco Bell. Officers say Rutherford fled on foot to the walking track before being apprehended.

Witnesses at Taco Bell said a black car was waiting in the drive-thru when Rutherford allegedly began to yell and curse at a female before striking her in the face several times. Rutherford then brandished a knife and got out of the vehicle to continue arguing before fleeing from the scene.

Officers spoke with the female and another occupant from the vehicle, who confirmed an account of what happened. Officers added the female showed signs of bruising and redness around her left eye.

Rutherford was charged with fourth-degree assault (minor injury), second-degree wanton endangerment, second-degree disorderly conduct, theft by unlawful taking (auto; $500 or more but under $10,000) and four counts non-payment of fines.
