Uniontown woman charged with assaulting boyfriend

1 min read

A Uniontown woman is accused of stabbing her boyfriend during an altercation at their residence Saturday night.

Latica Lewis, 34, allegedly gave Christopher Greer a deep puncture wound to his arm during the argument, which court documents said took place around 4 a.m. at their home on Pershing Court.

Greer told police after stabbing his arm, Lewis attempted to stab him approximately 60 more times, though he fended most of the blows off with a pillow.

Both were transported to WVU Medicine Uniontown Hospital.

Lewis said she had grabbed a knife after Greer pushed her onto the mattress with a pillow, but had no memory of anything after that, according to the complaint.

At the time of her arrest, Lewis was being prescribed psychiatric medication, the complaint said. She told police she had not taken it for several days because it did not mix well with alcohol.

Lewis is charged with aggravated assault and simple assault.

Lewis was unable to post $20,000 bail and is lodged in the Fayette County jail.

Her preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 22.
