The incident reportedly happened July 17 on Prescott Avenue in Dayton and involved a woman known to Bass, according to the indictment and the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.

An arrest warrant had been issued for Bass following his indictment.

His arraignment had been scheduled for Dec. 1, but it is not clear whether that date will change now that he is in custody.
