Woman, 79, May Face Charges in Cane Attack

SOUTH BEND, Ind. - Prosecutors were considering Tuesday whether to file charges against a 79-year-old woman who police say injured two officers when she struck them with a wooden cane.
The officers, both of whom were treated for their injuries at area hospitals, were hurt after they arrived at the woman's home to check on her welfare. One officer had a separated shoulder and hand injury while the other might have suffered a mild concussion, said Jaimee Thirion, a spokeswoman for St. Joseph County police.
The altercation began shortly after officers John Pavlekovich and Lonny Foresman arrived at the home Friday evening, a police report said.
St. Joseph County Prosecutor Michael Dvorak said officers were called to the home to investigate a possible domestic abuse charge against the caretaker.
"This is a serious concern because police are there to protect all of us," Dvorak said.
When officers arrived, the woman's caretaker, a 56-year-old man, became argumentative and told the officers to leave, according to a police report. The officers reported that the man refused to cooperate and an altercation ensued while they tried to handcuff him.
In his report, Pavlekovich said he heard a cracking sound from the woman's cane and saw her striking Foresman repeatedly in the neck and head.
Pavlekovich said he pushed the woman away from Foresman, who appeared to become disoriented, and the officers successfully handcuffed the man.
