A 39-year-old man was charged July 15 with two misdemeanor counts of domestic battery after an incident in Downers Grove, authorities said.

Anthony M. O’Leary, of the 6800 block of Highland Drive, Palos Heights, was arrested about 4:30 p.m. after a domestic-related incident at a residence in the 4200 block of Forest Avenue, Downers Grove police said.
