PLEASANTON — A woman was arrested Monday for allegedly stabbing her husband during a domestic dispute, police said.
The husband remained in critical condition Tuesday, according to authorities.
Police did not immediately offer more details about either the suspect or the victim, such as their ages or how long they have been married.
In a news release, police said that the woman called them about 12:30 a.m. Monday and said she had stabbed her husband during an altercation at an apartment complex in the 4900 block of Owens Drive.
When officers got to the apartment, they immediately administered aid to the man before he was transported to a trauma center.
The woman was arrested and later booked at Santa Rita Jail on suspicion of attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon and felony domestic violence.
Police did not say if officers ever had contact with the couple before.
The police department said in the release that it “extends its support to the affected family during this challenging period.”
