A woman suffered bite marks all over her body inflicted by her brother’s girlfriend mad because the woman advised her brother to stop dating her, Murfreesboro Police reported.
Paramedics treated victim Lazina Elizabeth Carter, 44, of Southfield, Mich., for bite marks Saturday at Embassy Suites on Conference Center Boulevard, Officer Cameron Adam reported.
“Carter had very bad bite wounds on her face, hand, arm and belly,” Adam reported. Paramedics examined her and treated her but she refused transport to the medical center.
She told Adam she was attacked in her room by her brother’s girlfriend who lives in Murfreesboro.
“Carter stated she told her brother to quit seeing (the girlfriend),” Adam reported. “Carter stated (the girlfriend) found out and attacked her, biting her all over her body.”
The victim’s sister witnessed the assault and tried to help.
Adam advised Carter how to obtain arrest warrants.
