Squamish RCMP last week arrested a 30-year-old woman for allegedly stabbing her 44-year-old boyfriend.
Last Tuesday (May 7) at around 7:30 p.m., police responded to a report of a stabbing at a home in the 1000 block of Axen Road in Brackendale, RCMP Sgt. Wayne Pride wrote in a statement.
At the scene, police arrested the woman, who is alleged to have stabbed her boyfriend in the rear shoulder area after a verbal altercation turned violent. The man was transported to Squamish General Hospital for treatment, Pride said.
Police are also investigating an incident a few days before in which the suspect had allegedly attacked the man with a knife, causing a serious injury to his arm. The incident was not reported to police at the time, Pride said.
