A 33-year-old man was arrested Thursday night on suspicion of felony domestic violence, theft and violating a restraining order stemming from a July incident, police said.

Fresno police said officers stopped a vehicle for an equipment violation about 9:54 p.m. Thursday near East McKinley and North Winery avenues.

A records check showed the driver, Brandon Young, was wanted in connection with a July 28 domestic disturbance, police said. Young was arrested and booked into the Fresno County Jail.

The July incident was reported about 12:05 a.m. at a confidential location.

Police said the victim told officers she was walking in the area when Young, her husband, approached her on foot and took her cellphone and wallet from her hands.

Young then allegedly grabbed the victim by her shirt and threw her to the ground, causing road rash on her back, police said.

While she was on the ground, Young allegedly slapped her three times on the left side of her face with an open hand before fleeing with her property, according to police.

Police said an active no-contact criminal protective order was in place at the time, with Young restrained from contacting the victim.
