A North Dakota woman has been charged with attempted murder and aggravated assault after allegedly striking her sleeping boyfriend in the head with a hatchet.

Another man at the scene, who was staying in the garage with the couple, later identified Deoliveira as the alleged assailant. He claimed Deoliveira is homeless, but she often stayed in the garage or at various homes in the neighborhood, where she would sleep on a couch or the floor.

He told police that when he woke up to the screaming, he saw Deoliveira swing down with the hatchet. According to court documents, the man said he couldn’t see what she hit but heard a sound “like splitting wood”.
The man told police he suspected that Deoliveira was “out of it”, but came to after hearing the click from the couch’s footrest and seeing the blood. He said she then fled the scene.

Y'all, I'm so sad. This young woman has a thread here from 2017 when she was 14 and a frequent runaway. clearly her life did not improve with adulthood. Homeless, sleeping on couches and in garages And now graduated to attempted murder
