SAN ANGELO, TX — A San Angelo man was arrested after police responded to unknown problem at the Executive Inn & Suites, 4205 S. Bryant Blvd. Aaron Arnold Lange, 50, was arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon following the initial investigation. 

Officers made contact with the alleged victim who informed officers that Lange had first confronted her while she was in the laundry room of the motel. The victim told officers he pushed her and forced her into her room where “he put his left forearm to her throat trying to choke her and used his right hand to hold a brown and silver folding blade box cutter to her throat and threatened to kill her,” according to court documents.

The victim wrote in her statement with officers that Lange said, “…could not wait to hear me try to breathe through the blood bubbles.” Lange then broke the victim’s phone in half in front of her.

According to the victim’s statement, the victim told Lange that someone had called the police and he told her that if she told the cops what he did, he would kill her when he got out of jail.

The victim said she lied to the initial officers who responded and then left the area.
