On December 10, 2019, deputies responded to the 1500 block of Hwy K, St. Clair in reference to a 911 hang up. As deputies arrived, a male subject was observed pulling a female from a vehicle by her hair. The male subject started to walk away when he observed the deputies pull in but stopped and spoke with the deputy. As the deputies went to place the suspect in custody, he took off running. Chase was given and the suspect was apprehended. Contact was made with the victim and she had injuries consistent with being assaulted. Charges were applied for with the Franklin County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office and a warrant was issued. The warrant charged Zachary R. Strube, a 24 year old male from St. Clair with Felony Domestic Assault 3rd Degree and Felony Resisting Arrest. His bond was set at $15,000 cash or surety. All parties are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
