When officers arrived on the scene, they saw a verbal altercation taking place between Hylton and Goldthreate. Officers spoke with Hylton, who stated that he was having a verbal argument with Goldthreate. Hylton told police the argument turned physical when she tried to walk away and “refused to listen to him.” Officers then spoke with Goldthreate, who stated that they only verbally argued but claimed that Hylton had held her down. Officers then noticed minor injuries on both as well as Hylton’s ripped shirt. Hylton was also found to have a semi-automatic handgun on him as well.
