Hell Hath No Fury Like a 'Man' Scorned?

An Oak Creek man allegedly got into a violent scuffle with his ex-girlfriend's new man at a home in Falls.

A 19-year-old Oak Creek man is dealing with more than a broken heart after he was caught in a scuffle with his ex-girlfriend's new wooer. 

Vincent Bradford was charged with misdemeanor battery, criminal damage to property, and two counts of bail jumping last week in the Waukesha County Circuit Court. He could face up to three years imprisonment and $40,000 in fines.

On Nov. 6, Bradford went to his ex-girlfriend’s home on the N8700 block of Hope Lane where she was spending time with her new boyfriend. Bradford began peeking through the living room window, and she went outside and confronted him. She told her boyfriend that Bradford had left.

About 10 minutes later, the boyfriend left the residence and was confronted by Bradford. He began to kick the boyfriend’s car and damaged the mirror and a marker light on the car. Bradford then charged the boyfriend, and began punching him in the head. Bradford punched the boyfriend roughly 10 times, which sent the man to the hospital the following day due to the continued pain.

Bradford’s ex-girlfriend told police he called her the day after the fight and apologized for hurting her, and said he still cared deeply for her.

Bradford was charged with one count of battery and one count of operating without a valid license prior to November’s offense. He posted $1,500 bail, but violated the conditions of his bail to not commit any further criminal violations.
