A woman will appear in court today over the alleged attempted murder of a man in Coolamon, north west of Wagga Wagga, last night.

Just after 8.10pm (Monday 11 January 2016), officers attached to Wagga Wagga Local Area Command were patrolling along Mann Street, when they stopped and spoke to a woman.

Inquiries led police to arrest the 35-year-old woman, after she told officers she had allegedly attempted to harm her husband.

Emergency services attended a home on Wade Street and treated a 44-year-old man at the scene for a cut to his throat. He did not require further treatment.

The woman was taken to Wagga Wagga Police Station, where she was charged with attempted murder.

She has been refused bail, to appear at Wagga Wagga Local Court today (Tuesday 12 January 2016).
