A $75,000 bond was set Tuesday for a White Hall man accused of stabbing his brother during an altercation Sunday.

Pine Bluff District Judge John Kearney set the bond after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Hussain Ahmed, 28, with first-degree domestic battery.

Reading from a probable cause affidavit from Detective Mike Merritt, Deputy Prosecutor Beth Carson said officers were sent to North Lee Street in response to a reported stabbing. A witness reported that Ahmed had been threatening and torturing her and her brother Said.

Carson then said this.

He was ordered to have no contact with his brother until the case is settled and told to come back to court March 9.
