The 61-year-old woman was stabbed in the upper arm and chest with a
steak knife the 56-year-old female attacker produced from her bag.
Superintendent Del Jones said the stabbing occurred after an argument broke out between the women in Karu Park, Coconut Grove at about 7pm on Monday. “The argument escalated and one of the women removed a steak knife from her bag, and stabbed the victim four or five times,” she said.
“The victim has then defended herself with a saucepan and hit the attacker over the head, leaving her with minor injuries.” Supt Jones said the offender has been arrested and spent the night in custody, while the victim was taken to Royal Darwin Hospital. “The offender will be spoken to by serious crime detectives,” she said.
