David Michael Sewell, 51, 305 Noketchee Creek Road, was charged with one count of battery FVA.

When he became confrontational about a TV, she reportedly asked him to walk outside of the store with her so as not make a scene in front of customers. While walking outside, Sewell allegedly struck her in the face.
