MUSKEGON HEIGHTS, Mich (May 1, 2014) – Prosecutors say a Benton Harbor area woman is accused of attacking two women with a butcher knife after a spat on Facebook.

29-year-old Constance Mullins is being held at the Muskegon County Jail on $40,000 bond after being charged with two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon and for being an habitual offender.

Prosecutors allege the attack happened in the 2800 block of Fifth Street on Tuesday.  Shortly after, two women showed up at nearby hospitals, one with blood pouring down her face, the other with cuts on her head and arm.

At least one of the victims required stitches.

Mullins apparently had a dispute on the social media site with the two victims prior to the attack.
