A female police officer was injured during a domestic altercation with her ex-boyfriend at her home along Ramgoolie Trace North last Friday night.

The incident occurred around 11:50 p.m. Reports indicate the officer was at home with her sister, her one-year-old son, and her former partner when an argument broke out after she asked him to leave the premises. He allegedly refused.

During the confrontation, the man is said to have attacked the officer, striking her multiple times on the head with the corner of his mobile phone. The officer sustained a laceration and swelling to her head. When police officers from the Cunupia Police Station responded, they observed blood on the officer's head and left shoulder.
