A Madison woman was arrested Thursday night after she allegedly stabbed a man in the chest with a broken umbrella handle.

Simone Cavett, 21, was tentatively charged with substantial battery and resisting/obstructing, according to a Madison police news release.

Police went to North Walbridge Avenue at 9:37 p.m. after residents heard lots of screaming.

"An officer found a man and woman walking," said police spokesman Joel DeSpain in the release. "The 21-year-old man was bleeding and appeared to have stab wounds to his chest."

The victim said he fell on some rocks, but the officer felt the injuries weren't consistent with a fall.

"A broken umbrella handle with sharp edges at the end of the severed tubing was found in the woman's purse," DeSpain said. "A small amount of what appeared to be fresh blood was at the tip of the tubing."

The victim was taken to a local hospital to get stitches.
