A Minden man was arrested on April 2 for domestic abuse battery following a reported disturbance at a residence in the 1200 block of Country Club Circle, according to a Minden Police affidavit.
Officers responded to the residence after receiving a call about an active disturbance. Upon arrival, they encountered a visibly upset woman who stated that the suspect, Cameron Romain, 29, had just left in a white Nissan Altima. Officers began searching for the vehicle and later located it near a Walmart parking lot, where a traffic stop was conducted.
According to the affidavit, Romain had been in contact with the woman throughout the day. He had agreed to attend a rehabilitation program, and she had assisted him in obtaining clothes for his stay. However, later in the day, he was removed from the program due to an altercation with staff and requested transportation from the woman. She picked him up and took him to his mother’s house.
That evening, Romain contacted the woman via telephone, requesting his cell phone, as she typically paid the bill. She agreed to return it. Upon arriving at her residence, Romain entered the home while the woman was taking a bath. He then allegedly broke down the locked bathroom door, struck her with a hat on the left side of her face, and hit her forehead with his hand. During the incident, he also reportedly threatened to kill her.
The woman’s two young children were inside the residence at the time. Officers documented visible injuries, including abrasions on her face, bottom lip, and forehead. She expressed a desire to press charges, leading to Romain’s arrest and transport to the Minden Police Department.
The affidavit states that Romain has a history of domestic abuse. He was previously arrested for domestic abuse battery on multiple occasions, including incidents in 2019, 2022, and 2024.
Photographic evidence of the injuries was uploaded as part of the case, and Romain was taken into custody without further incident. He was charged with violations of protective orders and domestic abuse with child endangerment.
All subjects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
