The PSNI said today that a woman has been charged with stabbing a man in the Long Commons part of the Co Londonderry town.
The 23-year-old woman is accused of common assault and carrying a weapon, as well as charges of having class B drugs and being concerned in their supply and she will appear before Coleraine Magistrates Court later on today.
Meanwhile, a 28-year-old man was also arrested in connection with the incident, but he has been released pending report to the Public Prosecution Service.
Alliance Coleraine Councillor Yvonne Boyle has expressed her shock after the man was stabbed and a man and a woman were arrested in connection with the attack and allegedly, also on suspicion of intent to supply drugs.
She noted that an amount of class B drugs were said to have been found on two people.
