(KAIR)--An Atchison woman goes to jail in connection with an alleged attack last summer that left a man injured.

Police Chief Mike Wilson says Sasha Gerard is accused of striking a man in the face, with his injuries requiring stitches. “That's actually a case that we investigated in July, last summer,” Wilson tells MSC News. “It was about 3 a.m. when officers responded to a disturbance at an apartment in the 500 block of North 9th. There a 33-year-old man had reported that an acquaintance had came to the door, had confronted him, and he actually was struck in the face. There was also some damage done to a door.”

Having left the scene of the alleged attack by the time police arrived, an Atchison County District Court warrant was issued for Gerard, who turned herself into police Wednesday. “The 27-year-old female was not there at the time. That investigative report went to the Prosecutor's office, a warrant was subsequently issued. She was not located for a period of time, but, however, she turned herself in and then she was booked on this outstanding warrant.”

Gerard faces charges of aggravated battery, domestic battery, and criminal damage to property.

Sher was booked into the Atchison County Jail following her arrest.
