By Patrick Sullivan | Sept. 17, 2019

A boyfriend who was upset that his girlfriend wasn’t answering his text messages became enraged, followed the woman to the Carter Road apartment complex where she lives, and rammed her car, according to police.

The 31-year-old girlfriend was in her car, but was not injured, says Traverse City Police Capt. Keith Gillis. Police responded to the Carter Center apartments at 11:15pm Saturday and arrested the 40-year-old boyfriend for felonious assault. The incident took place in the small portion of Traverse City that is in Leelanau County.

Both cars involved were heavily damaged, Gillis says.
