A 54-year old Belding man was arrested Tuesday outside Winchester Towers after witnesses called 911 reporting a domestic assault, police said. 

Officers were called to the retirement community on E. Broomfield Street around 6:30 p.m., police said, in response to a bystander call of a man assaulting a woman outside the building.

The man was taken into custody by Isabella County Sheriffs and will be arraigned tomorrow afternoon.

In the state of Michigan, there is a mandatory 20 hour cool down period after a domestic assault is reported, police said. All domestic violence cases are required to be arraigned before a judge.

Isabella County Sheriffs were assisted by the Mount Pleasant Police and Michigan State Police. 

No other suspect information was available.
