An 18-year-old Marietta man is accused of pistol-whipping a woman and threatening to kill her at an Austell Road apartment complex on Oct. 6. Christian Arnulfo Hernandez Massa is the suspect in the alleged attack.
According to an arrest warrant cited by the Marietta Daily Journal, the assault happened at Amber Grove Apartments, located at 2050 Austell Road SW in Marietta. The warrant alleges that Hernandez Massa struck the victim in the face with the pistol and threatened to kill her.
The alleged pistol-whipping is the central allegation against Hernandez Massa.
Police Responded to a Separate Dispute
Cobb County police were separately called to an apartment complex, according to the same account.
That report describes a neighborhood dispute that escalated into a physical altercation, resulting in four people being detained. One person suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a local hospital for treatment, the outlet reported. A SWAT team ultimately served a search warrant at an apartment where the four suspects were located, and all four were detained without significant incident, police said.
What Happens Next
Hernandez Massa's case now moves toward the court system. Anyone following the case can check status updates through Cobb County's own channels, including the Cobb County Magistrate Court warrant inquiry system or the Magistrate Court records search.
