A Little Rock woman reportedly tried to run over her boyfriend with her car on Tuesday and, when she missed, got out and attacked him with a knife, police said.
Little Rock police arrested Cheryl Lynn Nelson, 58, on charges of aggravated assault and domestic battery after she reportedly began swinging a "large knife" after failing to run over her boyfriend, according to a police report.
Nelson's boyfriend told police he had to jump out of the way of the vehicle to avoid being struck, and Nelson later gave a statement admitting to trying to cut him with the knife, the report said.
Officers transported Nelson to the Pulaski County jail, where she remained as of Wednesday evening. It was unclear whether bail had been set for Nelson.
