Two Austin residents were arrested for domestic assault Friday night after a verbal altercation between the two turned physical.

Police Chief Brian Krueger said Shaninth Ray, 23, and Nataile Wilson, 27, were arrested shortly before midnight Friday night.

According to a police report, the duo began arguing and Ray allegedly punched and choked Wilson.

Krueger said Ray could face felony domestic assault charges and Wilson could be charged for fifth-degree domestic assault.

Both Ray and Wilson will likely appear in court early this week.
