Alabama man assaults pregnant girlfriend with hot iron

The Talladega, Alabama, Police Department said Monday it is looking for a fugitive who attacked his then-girlfriend — who was 8 months pregnant at the time — with a hot iron.

Skyy Jamar Fomby has been hiding from police since the September 2019 incident, police said.

The victim was ironing a shirt when Fomby allegedly picked up the iron and injured her arm and face. She fled the home and sought help at Citizens Baptist Hospital.

Talladega police have warrants for Fomby’s arrest for felony domestic violence and felony assault. He’s also wanted for other offenses, including burglary, theft, criminal mischief, and drug charges.

Investigators ask that anyone with information about Fomby’s whereabouts call Talledega police or CrimeStoppers at 334-215-7867
