Woman arrested in Oct. 29 stabbing

Police arrested a 30-year-old woman Monday for allegedly stabbing her husband several times in front of her son during an argument outside a Plank Road gas station.

The incident occurred on Oct. 29 when Christina Hart tried to remove her son from a car in which she and her husband were riding, an affidavit of probable cause says. 

Hart stabbed her husband multiple times before running off, the affidavit says. Hart’s husband drove himself to LSU Earl K. Long Medical Center with his son sitting in his lap.

Hart, 6873 Forest Park Dr., was booked into Parish Prison on a count of attempted second-degree murder.
