A man was arrested in connection with a domestic violence incident involving a victim and two young children after officers responded to a call in Fresno, according to police.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday at about 7:53 p.m., officers were dispatched for a reported domestic violence disturbance, the Fresno Police Department said.<\/p>\n
