A 33-year-old Sedalia man facing a felony charge after a reported assault on February 13 has a court proceeding scheduled.
According to a Sedalia Police report, a woman told authorities that during an argument, Brandon J. Cooper punched her in the face several times, pinned her on the floor and punched her in her sides and back. She also claimed Cooper suffocated her by holding a pillow over her face until she passed out.
Court documents say Cooper is charged with a felony for domestic assault in the third degree. Cooper posted $25,000 surety bond on March 4.
Cooper, who was arraigned on March 15, is due for his next hearing at 10 a.m. Wednesday, April 6, at Pettis County Circuit Court.
