MAIDSVILLE, W.Va. — Deputies from the Monongalia County Sheriff’s Department have arrested and charged a Maidsville woman with malicious assault after allegedly hitting a woman with a metal pipe.
Early Tuesday morning, deputies were called to the home on Mason Dixon Highway after a report that Holly Hinerman, 48, hit another woman with a 23-inch pipe that weighed about two pounds.
The victim had bruises and redness on the shoulder and hand, according to deputies.
The victim told deputies Hinerman had previously threatened to kill her and her three children and had access to a firearm. She also expressed concern for the two elderly residents in the home because of Hinerman’s history of drug and alcohol use.
Hinerman is being held in the North Central Regional Jail.
