On Tuesday, Nov. 2, at around 7:50 p.m., police in Putnam County responded to a residence in Kent at 51 Yorktown Rd. after receiving a report of a possible physical dispute, according to Kent Police. 

After arriving, police spoke with a resident of the home, Nanette Ahearn, age 36, who said that the fight started when her husband became irritated about the iPad purchase she made, according to authorities. 

Police said Ahearn began recording her husband, 36-year-old Brian Ahearn after he became increasingly upset, and that he appeared to strike her with a closed fist in her face.
