Julie Michelle Gaines
A Red Bank woman has been charged with kicking her boyfriend's dogs during an incident at the Airport Inn on Feb. 4.
Juliet Michelle Gaines, 29, is charged with assault and cruelty to animals.
At 10:38 p.m., police responded to the hotel on Lee Highway. Adam Coffey said Ms. Gaines was drunk and hit him in the nose with her elbow. He said she then repeatedly tried to strike him with both open hands and closed fists.
He said she then kicked his male dog three times in the ribs and his female dog once before leaving.
Police said the boyfriend's nose was red from being hit. He did not require medical attention.
Officers were called to the hotel earlier because Ms. Gaines was yelling and screaming, it was stated. After police arrived, she said she would calm down and no longer be a problem.
