An Indiana man was arrested in Eastview Saturday, accused of assaulting his girlfriend and endangering the welfare of a minor. Kentucky State Police responded to an Eastview residence on Saturday on reports of a domestic dispute between the suspect, Dustin Galyan and the victim. According to the victim, Galyan had allegedly hit her in the head with a broom while she was feeding their young child. The victim also alleged that Galyan had grabbed her hair, slamming her and the baby to the ground.
Police arrived and found visible marks on the victim, as well as Galyan appearing under the influence of some kind of substance. During a consented search of the residence, police found suspected crystal meth, as well as 2 baggies of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, the latter of which was found concealed in a speaker. The drugs were found in the basement, an area where police say their child slept and played. Galyan was arrested and charged with assault 4th degree, possession of a controlled substance, as well as endangering the welfare of a minor. He is lodged in the Hardin county detention center.

As the days and nights get colder, it becomes even more important to take precautions for the possibility of being stranded in the cold. Meade County Emergency Management Director Ron Dodson says that having a winter preparedness kit in one’s vehicle is of the utmost importance.
In addition, Dodson recommends ensuring that any vehicle that will be taking the road is ready to do so in wintry conditions. This includes checking tires and gas tanks to ensure the safest experience possible on the road.
