- The former CEO of Dippin Dots is facing domestic violence charges, court records show.
- Scott Fischer is accused of strangling his partner, then walking out of their home in the nude.
- The charges include indecent exposure and domestic abuse by strangulation, KFOR reported.
Police arrested the former chief executive officer of the dessert company Dippin' Dots in Oklahoma earlier this week on charges that he throttled his partner before venturing outside, naked, multiple outlets reported.
Scott Fischer was arrested June 6 and is facing charges of domestic abuse by strangulation, interfering with a 911 call, indecent exposure, and public intoxication, Nichols Hills Police Chief Steven Cox told local television station KFOR. Insider contacted the Nichols Hills Police Department for a comment, but did not immediately receive a response Sunday.
According to an affidavit obtained by KFOR, Fischer had come home from work on June 6 intoxicated and an argument ensued between the couple, according to the documents.
Several hours later, the argument escalated and Fischer grabbed the woman by the throat and strangled her, she told police.
When the woman tried to get away, Fischer grabbed her and threw her over a sofa and began striking her in the chest with his fist, according to the affidavit. When she tried to call the police, Fischer tried to stop her, according to the report.
When officers eventually arrived, they found Fischer outside of his home, naked on the front lawn "with a blank expression on his face," standing with "a circular sway," OKC Fox reported.
It's not the first time that the former CEO has run afoul of the law. Another ex-girlfriend sued him in 2021, alleging he shared nude photos of her as part of a "campaign of abuse and harassment," Insider's Mia Jankowicz previously reported.
Court records show that Fischer was released on $10,000 bail in the domestic abuse case, but it was unclear Sunday when his next court date was or who was representing him. Fischer did not respond to requests for comment Sunday.
