The ex-boyfriend of a Hallsboro woman is recovering after an early morning slingblade assault.
Patricia Ann Jackson, 39, of 231 Cherry Town Road, was held under a $2,500 secured bond on a single charge of assault with a deadly weapon, according to detention center records.
The incident was called in at 1:42 a.m. Wednesday. Jackson and her reported ex-boyfriend, Darryl Campbell, had an argument that turned into a fight, a sheriff’s office report said.
Jackson allegedly cut Campbell, 60, on the forearm and the side with a slingblade. His injuries were not life-threatening.
