Domestic Assault in Buxton: Early Saturday morning, Sgt. Jack
Scarborough was ending his tour of duty for the evening. As he
arrived at his residence, he exited his patrol vehicle and heard what
he thought was a female screaming. After closer listening, he
determined the screaming to be coming from two different females and a
male. He returned to his patrol vehicle and found a hysterical
female in front of a residence on Dippin’ Vat Road in Buxton. This
female informed Sgt. Scarborough that her father had assaulted her
mother. Further investigation discovered the victim of a domestic
assault in the street, accompanied by her son. Dare EMS was
called and attended to the victim, flying her to Norfolk Sentara
Hospital. Through his investigation, Sgt. Scarborough determined
that the alleged perpetrator of the assault was in a residence on
Dippin’ Vat. He reportedly was armed. The suspect was taken into
custody without incident.
Daniel Franklin McCroskey, 36,
47257 Dippin’ Vat Road, was charged with assault with a deadly weapon
inflicting serious injury. He is being held at the Dare County
Detention Center in lieu of $100,000 bond. The investigation is pending
