LAS VEGAS-Assemblywoman Francis Allen was arrested this weekend for stabbing her husband in the arm with a steak knife, according to a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department report. She was booked for one count of battery with a deadly weapon, one count of domestic violence and one count of battery domestic violence. The most serious charge holds a potential penalty of 2 to 10 years in prison and a fine of not more than $10,000.

Kudos to Jon Ralston who flashed about the incident about an hour ago.

You can read the arrest report here, including Allen and her husband's very different versions about how exactly the knife ended up in his arm.

Allen will be facing three Republican challengers in the Aug. 12 primary.
