John Martin Moberg, 63, was taken into custody on a charge of battery at about 10 p.m. Saturday at his home in the Village of Santo Domingo.

Moberg, who stands 6 feet tall and weights 200 pounds, chest bumped his wife during the argument. He also used his hand to push her chest.

He was taken into custody and booked at the Sumter County Detention Center. He was released after posting $1,000 bond.
