♦ Brittany Mykal Bishop, 29, sharing an apartment with Jasmaine Allison, 23, on the 1100 block of Bringle Ferry Road in Salisbury, was arrested Sunday for allegedly for stabbing Allison during escalating domestic violence.
Bishop was charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury (felony). Under a secured $20,000 bond, she is being held in the Rowan County Detention Center.
Suffering a stab wound to her upper arm, Allison allegedly called 911 never knowing when her roommate might erupt again. Salisbury Police arrived a short time later to find Allison bleeding from the wound to upper arm and had her transported to Novant Health Rowan Regional Medical Center where she received treatment and had her wound stitched.
The victim was preparing herself for bed when her roommate Bishop allegedly began arguing with her then started hurling objects. Allison fled into the bathroom where she remained until she thought her roommate quieted down. When Allison emerged, Bishop came at her with a kitchen knife and stabbed her in the upper arm.
