COEUR d’ALENE — Ashton E. Newberry, 20, of Coeur d’Alene, is charged with attempted strangulation, a felony and domestic battery in the presence of a child, a misdemeanor, after police said he choked a woman.

The charges stem from Jan. 1, when a woman reported to police that Newberry had “slapped and strangled her” during an argument, according to court records. Upon arriving at the scene and speaking with the woman, police observed petechiae, tiny hemorrhages that occur in the skin when capillaries overfill with blood and pop, "in both her eyes."
