A North Platte woman is facing a felony assault charge after she allegedly assaulted a woman on Sunday evening.

At around 7:00 p.m., on May 31, North Platte Police responded to the report of an assault at a residence in the 2300 block of West 13th Street.

Officers arrived and met with the 55-year-old homeowner, who stated that 48-year-old Michelle Jones, who had been told not to enter the house, entered the house anyway.

Once inside, Jones allegedly began yelling at a 28-year-old female and began beating her with a cotton sock which contained numerous coins.

Following further investigation, officers located Jones and placed her under arrest.

She was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center and charged with felony 2nd-degree assault.
