A 31-year-old Nicholls man was arrested on multiple charges after he allegedly kicked in a woman’s door and assaulted her, according to a report from the sheriff’s office.
The report states that on October 31, 2026, at around 8:30 p.m., deputies responded to a domestic call at Bear Creek Mobile Home Park. They spoke with the female victim who stated that Jeffery Herring, 31, of Nicholls, had come to her home around 4:30 that morning. He was intoxicated and playing loud music. She finally convinced him to leave around 6:30 a.m., the report says.
The victim reported that Herring returned around 8 p.m., kicked the door in, and began throwing things around the home. He also punched holes in the wall and assaulted her, the report says. The officers observed damage to the home and injuries on the victim.
By the time officers arrived, Herring had left the scene. He was arrested a few hours later on November 1, 2026, and charged with battery (family violence, 1st offense), terroristic threats and acts, and criminal damage to property – 2nd degree. He has since been released.
