BEATRICE, Neb. (AP)-- A Marysville, Kansas man was arrested by officers responding to a 911 call from a 7-year-old southeast Nebraska boy who said his mom was being punched.
The incident occurred shortly after 8 Saturday night in Beatrice. The boy told officers he'd seen his mom's boyfriend punch her several times. The boy and four others his age or younger were in the home at the time.
Officers arrested 31-year-old Steven Kling. He told them he did not strike the woman.
Kling's bail was set at $10,000 on Monday in Gage County Court. His next hearing is scheduled for Nov. 17.
