911 Call Ends in Foot Chase After Employee Finds Bloodied Victim Being Strangled 6

Fakir Hussain Abdullah {BSO}

A 911 call from WoodSpring Suites in Tamarac led to a foot chase after hotel staff found a bloodied woman who told deputies her boyfriend strangled her during a violent domestic dispute.

According to a BSO arrest report, Fakir Hussain Abdullah, 24, was arrested on May 27 and charged with domestic battery by strangulation, battery, and resisting arrest.

According to a probable cause affidavit, deputies responded to a 911 call from the WoodSpring Suites Hotel. Upon arrival, deputies said the victim told them an argument escalated after she became upset that Abdullah allegedly chose not to go to work and instead wanted to spend the day drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in the hotel room she was paying for.

According to the report, the victim packed Abdullah’s belongings and told him to leave. Deputies say Abdullah then punched her in the mouth while they were inside the room.

A hotel employee who responded after hearing a loud argument in the hallway told deputies the confrontation turned physical. The employee reportedly observed blood coming from the woman’s mouth and witnessed the pair fall to the floor during the struggle.

Investigators say the employee reported seeing Abdullah place both hands around the woman’s neck, choking her so hard that she later said she could not breathe for an extended period of time.

Deputies later located Abdullah near Hiatus Road. According to the affidavit, when a deputy attempted to place him in handcuffs, Abdullah ran away. Authorities said he ignored commands to stop and fled on foot before a search of the area led deputies to catch and detain him after a brief pursuit.

Investigators noted that Abdullah had no prior battery convictions but was already on probation for resisting an officer with violence at the time of the arrest.

Abdullah was arrested and booked into the Broward County Main Jail.
