Austin T. Vanhoose, 17, of 5409 County Road 1, West Liberty, was charged with domestic violence related to an incident at his residence Wednesday.
Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to his address about 9:20 p.m. on a report from his mother, Rebecca Cotter, who asked for assistance because she said her son had assaulted her and forced her outside of the home.
Cotter said Austin had “attacked her” during an argument about him attending school and spit in her face. After forcing her out of the home, he reportedly locked the door.
Deputies were able to locate Austin outside and he refused to speak with deputies about the situation.
He was placed under arrest and was transported to the Logan County Juvenile Detention Center.
A trooper of the Ohio State Highway Patrol also assisted at the scene.
