IRON MOUNTAIN -- An Iron Mountain man charged with felony assault will spend time in prison.

Thirty-five-year-old Dominic Isaiah Davis was sentenced to a minimum of two years and one month in prison, Monday, in Dickinson County Circuit Court.  He pled guilty to felonious assault and being a third time habitual offender in March.
    
Davis stabbed his wife in the leg during a domestic dispute last November.  She was taken to the hospital and treated for minor injuries.
    
In court Monday, Davis called the incident an accident, but judge Richard Celello disagreed.

"I don't know what state of intoxication everybody was in that day, but I'm convinced that this was no mistake.  You may regret it, you may, in that sense, view it as a mistake, but in terms of the actual act, I simply don't buy it," the judge stated.

Davis will be given credit for 192 days already served.
