A Mendocino County woman has been arrested on suspicion of domestic violence battery following an alleged incident late last week.
According to a press release by the Sheriff’s Office, deputies were dispatched to the 3800 block of Road B in Redwood Valley on May 12, shortly after 2 AM, following reports of a domestic violence dispute.
Upon arrival, deputies made contact with a 26-year-old man who alleged that his ex-girlfriend, Gabrelle Miller, 25, had threatened his life, physically assaulted him, and inflicted lacerations with a knife.
During the altercation, the 26-year-old male sustained several lacerations to his body consistent with the reported attack. Although medical attention was not required at the scene, deputies noted the injuries. The investigation led authorities to locate and apprehend Gabrelle Miller.
Miller, identified as the primary suspect, was taken into custody on suspicion of felony domestic violence battery, felony assault with a deadly weapon, and criminal threats. Following her arrest, Miller was booked into the Mendocino County jail, where she remains in custody with bail set at $30,000.00.
It was unclear at press time whether Miller had retained an attorney.
As the legal proceedings are ongoing, further updates and details pertaining to the incident will be disclosed in accordance with the directives of law enforcement and the judicial system.
