Shawn Lee Morison, owner of Southern-Electric Tattoo Parlor at 1521 U.S. 90 in Gautier, was arrested and charged on three offenses, including kidnapping, aggravated domestic violence and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.

GAUTIER, Mississippi -- The owner of a local tattoo business was arrested Tuesday afternoon for allegedly assaulting his wife and holding her against her will, Detective Sgt. Matt Hoggatt said Wednesday morning.

"The woman is his wife and this wasn't just a random act," Hoggatt said. "His business has only been open for a few months."
