Georgia man faces felony domestic battery charges in Bay County

BAY COUNTY, Fla. (WMBB) – A Georgia man has been charged with multiple counts of Felony Domestic Battery after he allegedly hit, choked, and used a wrench to strike his fiancée. According to a news release, the Bay County Sheriff's Office responded to the Aqua View Motel on Friday morning regarding a battery on a female. The victim was visibly distressed, bloody, and bruised on her face, officials wrote. The victim said she was in a verbal argument with her fiancé, 44-year-old Robert Funderburk, and that is when he became increasingly aggressive and hit her in the face with a closed fist. Walton County man found guilty on DUI manslaughter charge Authorities said the marks on the victim's neck were consistent with being forcibly grabbed and that other factors led them to believe that there was a loss of oxygen to the brain from her being choked. An arrest warrant was quickly obtained after Funderburk refused to leave his room at their Airbnb on 6215 Thomas Drive. Verbal contact was made, and he peacefully gave himself up without incident. Authorities confirmed that inside the room, a bloody wrench was found and is believed to have been used to strike the victim. They also discovered a towel covered in blood. Funderburk is an active member of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club and is visiting from Georgia. He was booked into the Bay County Jail, and his bond hearing is set for Saturday.
