Woman Arrested For Stabbing Man In Downtown Nashua: Police

NASHUA, NH — A local woman was arrested and held without bail after allegedly stabbing a man in Nashua, according to police. Samantha Iodice, 21, of Nashua, was arrested on May 26, 2019, and charged with felony first-degree assault and three counts of domestic violence-simple assault. At around 11 a.m. on Sunday, an officer on foot patrol downtown made contact with a man who had been stabbed in the arm.

Shortly after, according to a police report, Iodice arrived at the scene and “indicated that she had stabbed the man.” She was arrested while the man was transported to a hospital to be treated.

Iodice was initially charged with first-degree assault. But after investigators furthered the case, domestic violence charges were added to her docket and she was held without bail. Iodice was scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday in Hillsborough County Superior Court-South. She faces up to 18 years in prison and fines on the charges.
