Allegheny County sheriff's deputies arrested a man last night accused of throwing hot cooking grease on a woman in front of her child in McKeesport.
Herkley Fields is charged with aggravated assault and was also wanted by law enforcement for several other warrants.
He was charged on October 9, after the hot grease incident sent the woman to UPMC Mercy with severe burns.
Officers say Fields was in a home on Glen Mawr Street in Sheraden.
When they knocked a man matching Fields description locked the front door and tried to run out through a back door.
He's in the Allegheny County Jail, also charged in two other incidents in McKeesport.
