Kingston police say a local woman was charged with attempted murder for allegedly stabbing her ex-common-law husband in the neck on Tuesday.
The woman, 46, no longer lived with the man, but according to police she went to her ex’s west-end residence on Princess Street on May 1 at noon, and waited for him outside.
When the man arrived, an argument over money began. The victim told police that when he invited the woman inside she seemed to calm down, but when he turned his back the accused stabbed him in the neck with a knife.
