A Miami woman is facing an attempted murder charge after police said she became “infuriated” over a comment her boyfriend of three years made to her, leading her to stab him in the chest at her home in the city’s Little Havana neighborhood.
Police arrested a woman, 42, on Wednesday in connection with the early-morning Oct. 28 stabbing at her apartment in the 1500 block of Northwest Second Street, about two blocks south of loanDepot Park.
According to an arrest report, M and her boyfriend, who have a 2-year-old in common, were drinking at a nearby establishment and began arguing there.
Police said she and her boyfriend drove to her home and the argument “continued to escalate.”
The report states that M’ boyfriend made “a comment about why other men have left her in the past.”
M “became infuriated and asked the victim if he was implying that she was a prostitute,” police wrote.
Police said she then “grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed the victim one time on the right side of the chest,” causing a laceration and a rib fracture, and a large pool of blood in the home.
Authorities said she then fled.
A witness drove the man to his home, where Miami Fire Rescue medics arrived and transported him to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center for treatment.
The report states that detectives found M on Wednesday at an apartment in Miami’s Little River neighborhood; she declined to speak to investigators.
Jail records show that M, a Honduran national, was out on probation after being convicted of aggravated battery causing great bodily harm in 2023.
She was being held in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center as of Thursday with a bond listed as “to be set.”
