An Iowa City woman has been arrested after assaulting someone with a large kitchen knife.
According to the arrest report, 64-year-old Phyllis Magana of Crosspark Avenue arrived at an East Burlington Street residence at around 12:15 pm Monday with the weapon. When occupants of the apartment told her to leave, she attacked a person with the knife. The victim reportedly sustained a minor cut to one of their thumbs as a result of the incident.
Magana was taken into custody and charged with Assault while Displaying a Dangerous Weapon, an aggravated misdemeanor punishable by a jail term of up to two years if convicted.
A no-contact order was requested between the two involved parties.
