Police in Council Bluffs say a domestic disturbance this (Thursday) morning resulted a man being sent to the hospital and his wife arrested on two charges. 35-year old Jennifer Evens, of Council Bluffs, was arrested for Aggravated Domestic Abuse and Willful Injury, and was brought to the Pottawattamie County Jail.

Officers responded to a residence in the 100 block of N. 36th Street at around 5:30-a.m. Upon arrival, they made contact with 29-year old Christopher Evans,  his wife, Jennifer Evens. Officers determined the couple had been involved in an argument, that had ended with Jennifer allegedly striking Christopher in the back of the head with some type of blunt object and then striking him in the face with a “snow globe”, which broke on impact.

Jennifer then allegedly struck Christopher on the left side of his body with the broken snow globe, causing some superficial lacerations. Christopher Evens was transported to Creighton Medical Center for treatment of his injuries, which were not life threatening.
