A woman was arrested following a domestic violence incident Sunday where police say she stabbed a man in the arm at a property on Beaver Dam Road in Readfield.

Pamela Tarrio, 56, was charged with aggravated assault on the 64-year-old man, according to Sgt. Peter Michaud of the Maine State Police.

Michaud said the incident was reported at about 12:30 p.m. Sunday, and Trooper Travis Luce found the man with a cut on his left tricep apparently from a knife.

Michaud said the investigation found that Terrio had gotten into “a verbal argument with the male victim and threw a knife at him which caused the injury.”

Michaud said Luce provide medical aid to the victim and arrested Terrio. The victim was taken by Winthrop ambulance to a local hospital where he was treated and released, Michaud said.
