LOCKPORT – A man faces charges after he allegedly attempted to strangle his girlfriend when a fight turned violent in a South Street apartment just before 11 p.m. Tuesday.

Steven T. Brown, 39, of South Street, was charged with third-degree assault, obstructing breathing, two counts of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, and unlawful possession of marijuana.

A woman who described herself as Brown’s girlfriend told police that Brown put his hands around her neck and choked her for several seconds.
