Woman stabs man with steak knife while arguing about food, cops say
All allegedly appeared intoxicated during 2 a.m. squabble
An Ocean Grove woman was arrested on March 10 after she allegedly stabbed an acquaintance with a steak knife due to an argument over food at 2 a.m., Asbury Park Police Chief Mark Kinmon said.
Lorraine Swan, 49, was at her boyfriend’s house with him and his cousin when a fight broke out, Kinmon said.
“They were arguing about food,” he said. “They were cooking at the time.”
During the argument, Swan “took the steak knife and stabbed [her boyfriend’s cousin] and he received a small puncture wound, a minor injury,” Kinmon said.
All three were intoxicated, Kinmon said. The incident took place in the Boston Way Village apartments.
Swan was charged with aggravated assault, possession of a weapon without a permit, and unlawful possession of weapons, according to police department records.
