Coty Gillson assaults girlfriend while she’s holding her children during argument

32-year-old Coty Gillson had a domestic altercation with his girlfriend, Karlee Mitchell, at her residence on June 29th, 2023. On July 15th, 2023, Mitchell filed a police report stating she and Gillson had verbally argued. During the dispute, Mitchell said she walked into her walk-in closet, and Gillson held the door, refusing to open it while yelling at her. Then, Mitchell said that after Gillson had let her out, she had asked him for her son. Mitchell stated that Gillson handed her son to her. Mitchell then started walking out of the room with her son and daughter. While she was carrying her kids, Gillson pushed her from behind, knocking her into a door and causing pain to her elbow. She added that her daughter fell out of her arms and bruised her knee. A warrant was then issued for Gillson’s arrest that day. Gillson was later taken into custody for two counts of domestic assault on August 28th, 2024.
