A woman from Washington, D.C., was arrested after allegedly trying to cut a man’s throat during an argument that escalated. 

Oluwafunmi Gbolade, 23, was taken into custody by Takoma Park police and charged with attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault and malicious destruction of property, reported WJLA.

Gbolade was booked and had her mugshot taken, which revealed she has an unusual bow-tie neck tattoo.

The unidentified man involved in the dispute sustained a knife wound and had a non-life-threatening injury, said police. After the assault, he refused to be taken to the hospital.

When a call was made to 911 reporting the incident, the caller told police that Gbolade threw the knife and ran away.
