Woman flung blades at lover, police say

A 20-year-old woman threw two knives at her boyfriend of three years while yelling at him Friday night, and one struck him in the throat, police said.

North Little Rock police officers observed a knife wound in the neck of Paul K. Hill, of 311 E. Eighth St., after being dispatched to an apartment at 2500 Willow St. on a disturbance call about 9:30 p.m. Friday.

Hill refused medical treatment, but officers noted his neck was bleeding.

A security guard at the apartment complex originally responded and attempted to separate Hill from Shanitha Rogers.

Rogers, of 2500 Willow Apartment 805, was arrested and charged with second-degree domestic battery. She remained at the Pulaski County jail Saturday, where she was awaiting a bail hearing.
