OSWEGO -- An Oswego man is accused of assaulting two people in front of a child and later smashing out a police room window after being arrested.

Oswego County Sheriff's deputies say 29-year-old Douglass Pitsley, of 38 Birch Lane, caused bruising to a woman's arms and knocked a tooth out of man's mouth. Deputies say it happened at a home in Granby on New Year's Day.

He's charged with assault and endangering the welfare of a child.

While he was being arrested, deputies say Pitsley became unruly, loudly shouting obscenities at them. They say the then started head-butting the door and door window to the interview room where he was taken. But it didn't end there. Deputies say he eventually moved his handcuffed hands from behind him to the front of his body, breaking the glass in the door window with a chair. Deputies say he then tried to kick down the door.

Pitsley is also now charged with obstructing governmental administration and criminal mischief.

He was arraigned on all charges in Oswego City Court and sent to the Oswego County Correctional Facility in lieu of $1,250 cash bail or $2,500 bail bond. He is scheduled to back in court on January 9.
