A Bellingham man suffered a gash to his cheek early Sunday, Nov. 11, when his girlfriend attacked him with a 6-inch serrated kitchen knife, police said.

Rosalie Johnson, 18, was arguing with her 27-year-old boyfriend about 2 a.m. at their apartment on Sterling Drive when she picked up the knife and cut him across the cheek, said Bellingham police spokesman Mark Young.

She ran outside. Police dogs tracked her to the nearby Sears parking lot.

Johnson was booked into jail on suspicion of domestic violence assault in the second degree. Court records show she has a history of domestic violence.

Young said the boyfriend’s wound was superficial, so he didn’t need to go to St. Joseph hospital.
