A North Platte woman is facing a felony charge after she allegedly smacked her boyfriend with a pool cue during an argument.

According to Investigator John Deal, North Platte police met with a male subject at around 6:40 p.m. on Thursday.  He told officers that his live-in girlfriend, Sophia Boe, had been arguing at their residence in the 400 block of East 12th Street because Boe had learned that he was going to file for a protection order against her.

The victim alleged that, at one point, Boe had struck him in the back with a pool cue.  Deal says a witness corroborated the victim’s account.

Boe was contacted at the residence and placed under arrest.

She was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center on a charge of 2nd degree domestic assault, a Class III felony.
