A Libby man will spend time in a state facility after he was sentenced on April 29 following an assault of his former girlfriend during a domestic disturbance earlier this year.

Tyler Evan Eroh, 32, who remains in the Lincoln County Detention Center, was first charged with felony strangulation of a partner or family member, partner or family member assault, a misdemeanor and criminal possession of dangerous drugs.

After first pleading not guilty to the offenses on Jan. 29, Eroh pleaded guilty to the felony strangulation charge and the misdemeanors were dismissed as part of a plea deal between public defender Scott B. Johnson and county Attorney Marcia Boris.
