'Hysterical' woman knifed screaming partner and hit him with hammer in row over £20

A man was stabbed and hit with a hammer by his "hysterical" partner in a row over £20, a court heard. Rebecca Smith demanded the money from her partner on July 24 last year and took his methadone prescription as "punishment" for him not telling her where an amount of Valium was.

When the man threatened to leave, Smith picked up a six-inch kitchen knife and began stabbing and slashing at his face, the Grimsby Telegraph reports.

She then "pushed her thumb into his eye and he screamed at her to stop." Smith then proceeded to lock the back door as the man - who was left with nine wounds to his head, face and shoulder - tried to make his escape.
