A Columbia TV news anchor was arrested in South Dakota on Sunday after she was accused of smashing a beer bottle into a mans head over a political argument, according to Sioux Falls police.
Kamie Roesler, 28, co-anchors WIS Sunrise, according to the station. She joined WIS-TV in September 2019.
Roesler has been charged with aggravated assault.
The victim, a 32-year-old man, told police he and Roesler had been arguing about politics leading up to the incident.
Roesler and the man knew each other, according to police.
The victim had cuts on his face and needed stitches, police said. He refused treatment from paramedics at the scene but later went for treatment on his own, officials said.
Roesler had previously worked at KSFY-TV in South Dakota, a sister station of WIS.
WIS is aware of the incident and reported that Roesler was arrested on a charge of aggravated assault.
Brad Hyatt, WIS news director, told McClatchy News the station has no other comment at this time.
Not guilty, your honor.
A mostly peaceful conversation.
Release her to my custody and Ill take full responsibility....

I don’t blame you!!!
This could be a FR record of the least guilty ever!
Bad girl! Go to my room!
Not Guilty?! She’s completely innocent.
I haven’t watched WIS in I don’t know how many years.
WLTX some for the weather for me.
Yusuf guys are PATHETIC! Dont you even care with sides of politics she is on?
Most Biden voters are one or two arguments away from considering violence. Maybe that’s her problem.
Justice is blind
not
Clearly, the judge will do a directed verdict of NOT GUILTY... no need for jury due to MANIFEST EVIDENCE OF INNOCENCE.
I wonder which one was Anti-Trump?
Gentlemen, yes she is cute, but her guilt or innocence can only be determined by which side of the political argument she espoused. If she was pro-democrat, she is guilty. If not, let her go because the guy deserved it.
