An Adams County woman is facing charges after state police said she lied to them about a man trying to kill her.

Troopers responded to the Hanover Pike in Union Township just before 6:30 p.m. on Friday after receiving the report from Vicki Roberts, 54.

Roberts told investigators that a man with a knife was trying to kill her, a claim that was later determined to be false, police said.

"This was the 14th time in the last year the accused falsely reported a crime," according to a news release from the police.

Roberts was cited with disorderly conduct.
