NMU student charged for domestic assault

A former NMU student has been sentenced in connection with a domestic assault that occurred recently in West Hall. Justin Kime was arrested shortly after 7 p.m. on Jan. 24, following a dispute in the dorm with a girlfriend, said Public Safety investigator Victor LaDuke. Neither Kime nor the woman, a Northern student, were seriously injured and no weapons were involved, LaDuke said.
