Seminole County Chairman John Horan arrested

Seminole County County Commission Chairman John Horan was arrested on Wednesday. 

The Winter Springs Police Department has charged Horan with battery, related to a domestic violence investigation. 

According to an arrest report, Horan and one of his adult sons got into a verbal argument at Horan's Winter Springs residence over " living arrangements."  The report states that Horan became angry at his son and "punched him first," which prompted a full physical altercation.  At that point, police say the son left the residence and notified authorities.

According to the Seminole County website, Commissioner Horan is married to a Seminole County public school teacher. They have two adult sons. 

Horan was first elected in 2010, and then re-elected in 2014.
