Paducah Police Seek Man in Domestic Knife Assault

Police are seeking the public’s help in locating a man accused of assaulting his girlfriend with a knife late Thursday night.

The Paducah Police Department says officers were called to the 400 Block of S. 19th Street just before 10 p.m. to a report of a woman bleeding from her arm and screaming for help. When officers arrived on scene, they found the victim on the sidewalk with an apparent stab wound to her arm.

The victim told officers she had gotten into an argument with her boyfriend, 56-year-old Scotty Doss, during which he cut her with a large knife. The victim also had injuries consistent with having been bitten and hit in the face.
 
Doss fled the area prior to officers’ arrival in a Green 1997 Ford F150 XLT pickup truck (Tennessee License Plate # 9H80X2). 

Detectives have charged Doss with second-degree assault. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to contact law enforcement.
