IOWA CITY — An Iowa City man was charged Wednesday, accused of trying to kill his wife after she reported he had stabbed her with a pair of scissors and assaulted her after breaking into her home Tuesday. When officers responded, they saw a “large amount of blood” and found the woman with “numerous” stab wounds on and around her face, according to a criminal complaint. The woman told police that her husband, Yanser Batista Daby, 40, broke into her home, where he wasn’t allowed because she had a temporary protective order against him in a previous case. He stabbed her with scissors, strangled her and slammed her head into the floor during the assault, the criminal complaint stated. Officers found a pair of scissors at the woman’s home in a “pool of blood,” the complaint stated. Batista Daby left the house after the assault on his electric bike, and the woman had to find a neighbor to call 911, she told police. Police found her husband a short time later in the 800 block of Roosevelt Street. A search warrant was obtained for that residence, and blood was found on the man’s bike and helmet, according to the complaint.

City staff pitched it as a cheaper and faster alternative to towing for cars on the impound list. That list currently starts at $150 in unpaid fines.
