A woman accused her roommate of talking to underage women, but she ended up being the one arrested after she reportedly attacked him.
On March 8, around 8:45 pm, Gallup Police Officer Francesica Henry was dispatched to 3069 Abode Ct. after a woman called Metro Dispatch and explained that she wanted police to check in on her daughter, Asia Farrar, who had reportedly gotten into an argument with her roommate.
When Henry arrived at the residence, no one answered the door, and there were no cars in the parking lot. Henry got a hold of the mother again, and she said that Farrar, 28, was actually at the police department asking to speak to an officer.
Farrar spoke to Henry then, and said that her roommate was speaking to underage women in a sexual way. Farrar said she didn’t feel comfortable with him being around her seen-year-old daughter.
Farrar’s daughter was at a friend’s house at that time and was reportedly safe.
When asked, Farrar admitted she did not have proof to back up her allegations, saying that what she said was just “say so.” According to Henry’s report, Farrar had spoken to other officers about this matter in the past.
Farrar did have her roommate’s laptop. Officers told Farrar that a report would be filed and sent to the Detective Division for further investigation.
Farrar was not willing to give officers any information about her roommate besides his name. Officers explained that they would need the information for the report, but Farrar became upset and began to argue with Officer Francis Collins and Henry.
According to the report, Farrar began stepping closer to Collins, and the officer told her to stop getting so close.
Next, Farrar spoke to Officer Jerald Watchman, although she was still not cooperating. Watchman offered her shelter assistance, but Farrar refused. She began talking over Watchman and stopped listening to him.
After these arguments with officers, Farrar let the police department. Henry called Farrar’s mother back and explained that Farrar wouldn’t give up any information about her roommate. Farrar’s mother said Farrar “would get crazy” if asked about contact information for her roommate.
Around 11:45 pm, a call from 3069 Abode Ct. came into Metro Dispatch in reference to a domestic dispute. Officer Patrick Largo and Henry responded to the call and met with Farrar’s roommate.
The man allegedly had scratches on his face, and bruises on his right wrist. The victim said the bruises and scratches were from Farrar.
The victim said he’d returned home from work and Farrar wasn’t home. When she did come home, they got into an argument, and Farrar attacked him.
The man said he took Farrar’s phone, which he pays for. Farrar hit, slapped, and bit him.
The man explained that when he tried to leave, Farrar got in between him and the bedroom door. The man tried to go out the front door, and then the back door, trying to get out of the house.
When the victim was finally able to get to his Jeep, Farrar was in the driver’s seat and had locked the vehicle.
While the victim sat by the front door smoking a cigarette, Farrar allegedly tried to attack him with a stool that sits by the front door. She swung the stool, but the man was able to block the blow with his hands.
Officers took photos of the bedroom door, which was damaged, and photos of the man’s injuries.
Farrar was arrested for battery against a household member and false imprisonment. Her preliminary hearing is scheduled for March 22.
