A Mount Pleasant man is facing multiple charges following a reported domestic altercation earlier this month.
Mount Pleasant Police officers responded around 11:00 p.m. on February 7, 2026 to the 400 block of North Cherry Street for a report of a physical disturbance. When officers arrived, the suspect had already left the residence.
The suspect, identified as Idryss Williams, 35, of Mount Pleasant, allegedly choked the victim during an argument that escalated inside the home, impeding the victim’s breathing. Officers reported observing injuries on both sides of the victim’s neck consistent with hand placement.
Authorities say the couple has been in a relationship for more than a year and shares three young children. Two of the children were reportedly present during the altercation, while a third child was asleep downstairs.
When law enforcement contacted a witness, they reported seeing Williams corner the victim in the bathroom and hearing the victim tell him to remove his hands.
Due to concerns for the victim’s safety and the suspect leaving the scene, police requested an arrest warrant. The warrant was served on February 18, 2026 and a no-contact order was issued the following day. Williams is currently being held at the Mount Pleasant Correctional Facility.
He faces one charge of domestic abuse assault—impeding the flow of air or blood—an aggravated misdemeanor, along with two counts of child endangerment. A bond review hearing is scheduled for March 14, 2026.
As a reminder, all charges are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
