AUBURN — Auburn police have charged a city man with attempted murder for allegedly using an electrical cord to choke his girlfriend.
Mack Williams Jr. was held Monday at Androscoggin County Jail in lieu of $10,000 cash bail following a court appearance.
The Sun Journal reports that police say they were called to his home at about 6:30 p.m. Saturday by a roommate who reported that the 30-year-old Williams and his girlfriend had argued and the argument had turned physical.
The roommate said Williams also attacked him.
Williams’ girlfriend told police that the argument started because she thought he had cheated on her.
Williams told police that his girlfriend had swung her arms at him and he does not remember using the electrical cord.
