A North Platte woman is in jail on felony charges after she allegedly assaulted another woman, threatened her with a knife and shocked her with a stun gun.

According to Investigator John Deal, North Platte Police responded to the report of an assault in the 1300 block of West 9th Street at around 11:32 a.m. on Thursday.

The victim told officer that she and 30-year-old Julie Bowman had gotten into an argument on the phone over a theft.

The victim alleged that Bowman threatened her over the phone and stated that she was going to come over and cause her harm.

Deal said Bowman did show up at the victim’s residence and an altercation occurred near the front door.  The victim reported that Bowman punched her in the face, bit her and pulled some of her hair out.

The victim reportedly retreated inside the residence and shut the door.

Bowman then allegedly entered the residence, pulled out a knife and brandished it towards the victim.

Then, the victim said Bowman dropped the knife, pulled out a stun gun and shocked her.

Both women then fell to the ground, at which point the victim was able to get the stun gun away from Bowman.

Bowman then left the residence, but not before she took some DVD movies from the victim.

Deal said the victim sustained injuries to her face and arm, and the officer also noted loose hair falling from her head.

Bowman was contacted a short time later in the 1100 block of South Tabor and taken into custody.

She was lodged at the Lincoln County Detention Center on charges of use of a weapon to commit a felony, burglary and aggravated assault.

The stun gun and knife were both recovered at the scene of the assault.
