(KAIR)--A social media post led to an Atchison altercation that sent a woman to the hospital.

That allegation led to the late Friday morning arrest of 34-year-old Atchison resident Katie Thomas.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News Thomas allegedly went to a residence in the 500 block of south 6th Street, where she allegedly struck a 54-year-old woman in the face with a heavy drinking glass.

The victim was taken by private vehicle for hospital treatment and then released.

Thomas was arrested when police were called to the residence, and was taken into custody for aggravated battery.

Following her arrest, Thomas was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
