A 34-year-old man is in Houghton County Jail on a $5 million cash bond for his role in a domestic assault incident that took place last night in Dollar Bay.

Nima Nassiri is charged with one felony count of “assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder,” a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison or a $5,000 fine.

The Houghton County Sheriff’s Office says the incident occurred Sunday around 11:45 p.m. Police say a 27-year-old Dollar Bay woman was taken to Portage Hospital and then transferred to Marquette General Hospital for further treatment.

The Houghton County Sheriff’s Office is still investigating the case while Nassiri remains in police custody. Nassiri was arraigned today, but he will be back in Houghton County District Court on December 20th for a preliminary hearing.
