WELLS, Vt. — A Wells woman was arrested Tuesday morning on charges of aggravated domestic assault after a domestic disturbance in the Rutland County town, Vermont State Police said.

Troopers from the state police barracks in Rutland were called to Wells at about 7:44 a.m. Tuesday, according to the agency. Police said their investigation found that Heidi Baron, 34, of Wells, had injured a family or household member, violated conditions of release and kept the person from reaching emergency services.

Baron faces two counts of second-degree aggravated domestic assault, two counts of violating conditions of release and one count of interfering with access to emergency services, police said.

She was taken to the Rutland barracks for processing and then to Rutland County Superior Court, where she was scheduled to appear before a judge at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to state police. The release did not say what happened at that hearing.

State police did not identify the person who was hurt, in keeping with the agency's practice of not naming victims of domestic violence, and did not describe the injuries.

The charges are allegations, and Baron is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
