Woman Charged with Assault After Stabbing Another Woman During an Altercation
|
A woman was stabbed during a fight at the Del Amo Fashion Center in Torrance. According to police the women apparently knew each other and had a lingering dispute. The fight began outside of a clothing store at 11:20 p.m. where Karina Garcia, 19, challenged the other woman to a fight. When Garcia began to lose, she pulled the knife and began stabbing the 19 year old victim. The victim suffered multiple stab wounds in the thigh, shoulder, and chest. Garcia drove away in a black SUV, officers stopped her and arrested her on suspicion of assault.
An assault is a unlawful attempt, coupled with a present ability, to commit a violent injury on the person of another. An assault is punishable by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, or by imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding 6 months, or by both the fine and imprisonment.
