A Jamestown man was taken into custody after a report of a domestic dispute early Wednesday. Jamestown Police responded to an address on the city's south side at about 3:30 AM and made contact with the victim, who alleged that 45-year-old Merle Smith had physically assaulted her, causing injury. Officers located Smith a short distance from the scene and took him to the Jamestown City Jail. He was held pending arraignment on a charge of 3rd-degree assault.
