Falmouth Woman Arrested After Stabbing On I-495 Ramp: Police

FOXBOROUGH, MA — Police said a woman was arrested after she stabbed another woman on the highway and fled to an inn in what they called a case of domestic violence.

Reports came in around 1:30 p.m. about two women who got out of a Jeep Cherokee on the ramp from Route 24 North to I-495 North in Bridgewater. One woman got back into the Jeep and drove off, while the other was left on the side of the road with stab wounds to her leg.

The victim, a 32-year-old Saugus woman, was taken to Good Samartin Hospital.

Not long after police issued a Be On The Lookout alert for the Jeep, the other woman was found and arrested at the Red Fox Inn on Route 1 in Foxborough. Police charged the 36-year-old East Falmouth woman with assault with a dangerous weapon and assault and battery on a family or household member (second offense.) Police said more charges could follow.

The woman is not being identified because it is a domestic case.
