A felony assault suspect was arrested Thursday after she allegedly kicked a door open and assaulted her boyfriend after a verbal argument in Newhall, officials said.

On Thursday around 4 p.m., deputies responded to a call for service regarding a domestic violence incident that had taken place on the 24800 block of Walnut Street in Newhall, said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.

“Upon arrival, deputies learned the victim was physically assaulted by his girlfriend, … during a verbal argument at their residence,” Arriaga said.

During the argument, the victim attempted to separate himself from the suspect by locking himself in the bedroom, according to officials.

“The suspect then kicked the door open and began physically assaulting the victim,” Arriaga said.

The victim suffered a minor injury and was treated on scene by medical personnel.

The suspect Thyais Lee, 43, of Newhall, was arrested for felony spousal assault, Arriaga added.
