A 29-year-old Villa Rica man apparently expected his ****** to iron his clothes for him. And when she wouldn't, he pulled a *** and held her hostage for several hours, police said.
Robert Edward Tyrrell Jr. remained in jail Wednesday without bond, Sgt. Marc Griffith with the Carroll County Sheriff's Office told the AJC. Tyrrell faces aggravated assault and false imprisonment following the June 30 incident, Griffith said.
"He wanted her to do some ironing, and when she said ‘no,' they got into an argument," Griffith said. "He told her ‘ironing is woman's work.' "
Tyrrell, who lives with his parents, then pulled out a *** and took his 51-year-old ******'s keys and cellphones, Griffith said. The man refused to let the woman leave for at least six hours, investigators said.
“**** finally said, ‘I’m not ironing your clothes,' and he went cuckoo on her," Griffith said.
The woman was later able to get out of the home and drive to a police station to report the incident, and deputies were dispatched to the home. Eventually, Tyrrell surrendered without incident, Griffith said.
