A 29-year-old woman is facing charges after allegedly throwing a rock at another woman in a downtown parking lot.
Police say officers were called around 8 a.m. Thursday, to the area of Dalhousie and George streets after reports that a woman, while asking for money, struck the victim in the face with a rock. The victim sustained undisclosed injuries.
A suspect matching the description was located nearby and taken into custody.
The woman is charged with assault with a weapon and two counts of failing to comply with probation. She was bound by court orders prohibiting her from possessing any weapons and requiring her to keep the peace.
She appeared in court later that day and remains in custody.
