ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — A man on his way to anger management class became angry and struck a woman, authorities said.
Justin John Boudin, 27, pleaded guilty Friday to fifth-degree assault in Ramsey County District Court and can expect to face a sentence for time served in jail, at least 120 days, and probation when he is sentenced May 5, the county attorney's office said. According to a criminal complaint, Boudin was waiting at a bus stop on Aug. 29 when he accosted a 59-year-old woman and others. "Why don't you show me some respect?" he allegedly yelled at the woman. When she took out a cell phone to call police, he hit her in the face, according to the complaint. When a 63-year-old man tried to stop Boudin, Boudin hit him with a blue folder — which fell on the ground — and fled. Police tracked him down through the folder, which included Boudin's anger management homework and his name, the complaint said. Information from: The Associated Press, http://ap.google.com |
