A 50-year-old woman suffered multiple injuries to her arm, foot and knee after being attacked by another woman with a metal object Tuesday evening in Ann Arbor.
Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush said the 50-year-old woman was approached by a 30-year-old woman Tuesday evening in the 200 block of South Seventh Street. The 30-year-old woman pushed the older woman and then began an assault.
Bush said the younger woman punched the older woman and then struck her with a metal object. The younger woman then left the scene before officers could arrive in the area.
The two women knew each other, Bush said. It’s unknown at this point what metal object the woman was struck with.
Huron Valley Ambulance personnel transported the 50-year-old woman to the University of Michigan Hospital emergency room to be treated for multiple injuries on her arm and abrasions on her foot and knee.
The Ann Arbor Police Department detective bureau is investigating the incident, Bush said.
Anyone with information on the assault is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK UP (773-2587).
