A Logan County Sheriff's Deputy is facing a charge of domestic assault.
According to a news release from the West Virginia State Police, Derrick Pearson was arrested Monday.
Investigators say that about a week ago, Pearson was off-duty when he was driving his truck and encountered his wife and her friend.
According to the complaint, Pearson forced the two women to stop. He approached the vehicle and started shouting at his wife and pounding on the door, troopers say.
The passenger in the car got out and that's when Pearson allegedly hit her in the face twice.
The victims told police this confrontation was the result of an earlier domestic confrontation between Pearson and his wife.
Pearson has been released on bond.
