‘Help me’: Rockford man accused of attacking a woman while violating order of protection

ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO) — Rockford Police arrested Francisco Bustamante, 42, for allegedly attacking a woman while violating an order of protection that was ordered against him.

Officers were called to the 900 block of North Main Street for reports of domestic violence on July 16, just past midnight. The woman could be heard yelling “help me” within the apartment complex, court records show.

The woman told authorities that Bustamante attempted to start doing drugs after he helped her with chores.

When the victim told the suspect to leave, he punched her multiple times and pushed her to the ground, according to court documents.
