A 34-year-old Marathon woman was arrested on Nov. 13, after she allegedly threw a knife at a man’s face.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office was called to a residence on 39th Street at approximately 5 p.m. regarding a battery. Deputies said Danielle Nichole Banks was fleeing from the scene in a vehicle but was quickly detained.
The male victim stated there had been an argument and Banks threw a knife at his face, striking and cutting him under his eye. There were no life-threatening injuries reported. The incident reportedly began when Banks saw a $5 payment the man made to a “female friend.”
Banks was charged with aggravated battery and resisting arrest.
