A 29-year-old Lincoln man was arrested Thursday evening on multiple charges stemming from an alleged domestic assault that morning.
Nathan Ueding was taken into custody on suspicion of second-degree assault, use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony, strangulation, terroristic threats and first-degree false imprisonment in connection with the incident in the 700 block of South 45th Street.
A woman told police that, at about 10:30 a.m. Thursday, Ueding had assaulted her and not allowed her to leave the home for several hours, according to Officer Erin Spilker. The woman reported being struck with a hatchet during the assault, and officers observed significant bruising all over her body, Spilker said.
A search of the house found a hammer and hatchet in the bedroom along with corroborating evidence of the assault.
