A man was arrested for battery on a peace officer among other charges after he allegedly choked his sister and fought with deputies last week. 

On Thursday, deputies responded to the 18100 block of Terra Verde Place in Canyon Country regarding a family disturbance call for service, said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.  

“It was reported the victim’s brother choked her,” Arriaga said. “Upon arrival, deputies learned during a verbal argument, the suspect physically assaulted the victim.” 

The victim was desirous of prosecution against her brother who was the suspect, Arriaga said.  

“As deputies detained the suspect at the residence, he became uncooperative,” Arriaga said. “A brief struggle ensued.  A short period later, deputies were able to detain the suspect.” 

The suspect did not sustain injuries however was evaluated by medical personnel on scene.  

Antonio Mora, 24, from Canyon Country, was ultimately arrested for battery on a peace officer, and battery, Arriaga added.  

Mora was booked into the SCV Sheriff’s Station and subsequently released on citation to appear in court at a later date.
