Miami Woman Stabs Boyfriend In Eye With Rabies Needle: Police

MIAMI, FL — A Florida woman was arrested last weekend after authorities said she stabbed her boyfriend in the eye with hypodermic needles because he was looking at other women, according to police.

Sandra Jimenez, 44, was arrested Saturday and charged with aggravated battery during what police said was an ongoing argument between the couple, according to an arrest affidavit.

According to police, Jimenez's boyfriend of eight years was lying on a couch in their Miami home when Jimenez grabbed two rabies needles used for their dogs. She then jumped on top of the victim and used the needles to stab him in the right eyelid.

Jimenez fled the house following the incident after realizing what she did, police said. The victim called the police and was taken to the hospital for treatment, according to authorities.

Police said officers at the hospital spoke with the victim, who provided officers with a photo and description of Jimenez's vehicle. Authorities later found Jimenez sleeping in her car, police said.

Jimenez appeared in court Monday and was ordered to stay away from the victim, according to an NBC 6 report. A judge set her bond at $7,500 and she was released on house arrest, the report said.
