A Lone Tree woman allegedly assaulted by her daughter and the daughter's boyfriend told sheriff's deputies as she was being put in an ambulance that the couple had “bales of weed” in a minivan.
Now the daughter, Amanda M. Fields-Blumer, and boyfriend, Nathan S. Jurski, face assault and drug-related charges.
Johnson County sheriff's deputies responded to 110 N. Devoe St. in Lone Tree, a small town in the southeast corner of the county, at about 7:35 p.m. Thursday for a reported domestic fight.
They found a woman with a golf ball-sized bump on her forehead and red marks on her face. She said her daughter and her daughter's boyfriend hit her in the face several times while holding her down on the couch, according to a criminal complaint.
While being loaded into an ambulance, the alleged victim said Fields-Blumer and Jurski had “bales of weed” in a minivan, according to the complaint. Three large bags of a substance consistent with marijuana were found.
Fields-Blumer, 25, of Lone Tree and Jurski, 27, of Davenport, face charges of controlled substance violation and failure to affix tax stamp. Fields-Blumer also was arrested for second-offense domestic abuse assault, and Jurski for assault causing bodily injury.
Both were in Johnson County Jail Friday on $11,000 cash-only bonds. Jurski has a hold on him for charges out of Camden County, Missouri. Information on those charges was not immediately available.
