Police arrest woman in connection with stabbing

Oct. 21, 2008 — The Susanville Police Department arrested a woman in connection to a stabbing incident on the morning of Friday, Oct. 10. Police responded at about 10:50 a.m. to a home near the corner of Ash and Fifth streets. Upon arrival, officers made contact with 30-year-old Susanville resident Alyssa Hicks. Hicks told officers at the scene that she had “stabbed her boyfriend.”

SPD captain Tom Downing identified Hicks’ boyfriend as 28-year-old Susanville resident Raymond Raines. Police confirmed that the wound was non-life threatening, meaning no vital organs were hit by the weapon.

Raines was transported to Banner Lassen Medical Center for treatment of the wound.

Further investigation led to the arrest of Hicks, who was booked into the Lassen County Adult Detention facility for alleged assault with a deadly weapon. Downing said Hicks was claiming self-defense in the incident.

The case has been referred to the District Attorney for further review.
