A 26-year-old Bradford woman has been charged after allegedly assaulting a man with a weapon, South Simcoe police say.

On Sunday afternoon, officers were dispatched to a home in Bradford, where a 33-year-old man said his girlfriend stabbed him in the leg during an argument, according to police.

Officers say the suspect reportedly ran off and was hiding in a neighbour’s house.

According to officers, members of the emergency response unit used “tactical communications” to get the suspect to surrender.

The Bradford woman was then charged with two counts of assault with a weapon, one count of assault and one count of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
