Police locate Ontario man charged with trying to kill his wife

An Ontario man who fled his home after allegedly trying to kill his wife has been arrested.

A tip to the Santa Ana Police Department led authorities to a home in the city where Juan Marrufo Cisneros, 32, was staying with a friend, said Ontario police Detective Jeff Higbee. Cisneros was arrested there without incident on Sept. 4, Higbee said.

Cisneros has pleaded not guilty to attempted murder and three other felonies for his alleged attack on his wife. He remains jailed in lieu of $400,000 bail.

Cisneros' wife told police that she and her husband argued over her disciplining one of their children on Aug. 25. He allegedly attacked her, first pushing her, then punching her, choking her, slamming her head into the ground, and attempting to slice her with broken glass.

Cisneros' wife told police after the attack that she believed her husband fled to Mexico.
