Pregnant woman stabbed during fight

A pregnant Russellville woman was stabbed during an altercation Thursday evening and the woman who allegedly attacked her was taken into custody.
Christie Hallman, 24, 514 Van Buren St., Apt. 1, Russellville, was arrested for first-degree assault, Russellville Police Chief Chris Hargett said.
According to Hargett, officers received a call about 8:30 p.m. Thursday from the Russellville emergency room that a 24-year-old pregnant female had been brought to the ER after being stabbed.
Hargett said after talking with the victim, officers discovered the incident had taken place in the 1300 block of Waterloo Road in Russellville.
Hargett said after locating the residents and speaking with witnesses, Hallman was developed as a suspect.
Sgt. Joe Hargett said the victim had allegedly gone to her estranged husband’s home to get money for their child when she encountered Hallman at the residence.
Joe Hargett said the two women apparently got into an altercation and Hallman allegedly stabbed the victim with a weapon that has yet to be determined.
After completing the investigation, Hallman was arrested on the assault charge.
