A Levittown woman was arrested for an assault that occurred in Levittown.
On October 22 at 9:20 p.m., Nassau County Eighth Squad officers responded to 911 call for an assault with a weapon. Upon arrival, officers saw blood on the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom floors. No one was present at the scene. It was determined the victim responded to an area hospital for treatment.
Officers responded to the hospital and were informed the male victim, 29, had an argument with Marienny Yanez, 29, about ending their relationship. Yanez confronted the victim with a knife in each hand and lunged at the victim with the one in her right hand. The victim raised his right arm to block the attack and suffered a laceration to his forearm. Yanez dropped both knives and accompanied the victim to the hospital. She was arrested by officers without incident.
Yanez is charged with second-degree assault, fourth-degree criminal mischief and two counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon. She was scheduled to be arraigned on October 23 at First District Court in Hempstead.
