A Jersey City woman stabbed her husband in the chest after returning from a night of partying while their 3-year-old daughter was home alone, authorities said.

Audrey Marie Ceropin, 25, of Prospect Avenue, was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, unlawful possession of a weapon and endangering the welfare of a child early Saturday morning, police said.

Her husband, Elvis Ceropin, who suffered a 2-inch deep stab wound to his chest and a cut on his right elbow, was also charged with endangering the welfare of a child and was treated at the Jersey City Medical Center for his non-life threatening injuries.

Police said the couple was at a bar on Palisade Avenue in Jersey City and met a man they invited back to their home to continue partying. Once there, the Ceropins began to argue and the man left the home.

Audrey Marie Ceropin told police that her husband struck her and threatened to harm their 3-year-old daughter, and that is when she stabbed him, police said. She also admitted to police that she and her husband left the toddler at home while they were at the bar, reports said.

At the couple’s home on Prospect Avenue, police recovered a knife with an 8-inch blade that had been cleaned of blood with a white T-shirt, reports said.
