A 29-year-old Hamilton, Ontario, woman has been charged with attempted murder and sexual assault after police broke up a late-evening fight between two naked women on a Duke Street apartment balcony.
Sergeant Terri-Lynn Collings said the woman is also charged with being unlawfully in a dwelling. The charges follow investigation of a disturbance at the apartment, near MacNab Street South, at about 10:30 p.m. Sept. 13. The charges were laid Sept. 18.
Collings said the homicide unit is investigating the incident. Police were called to the apartment because witnesses reported two women fighting on a third-floor balcony. Detectives are not saying what prompted the incident, who was injured, or whether a weapon was involved. Little information is being provided “for investigative reasons,” Collings said.
Karyn DeJong has been charged. She appeared in Hamilton court on Sunday and was remanded in custody. Police have asked anyone with information to call homicide Detective Angela Abrams.
