Kara Marxer Reporting

A Joplin woman is going to trial for stabbing a 14-year-old boy in the hand.

The boy's father told a judge 19-year-old Carina Ramos and his son had been hanging out for about a month before the incident, but then in January, they got into a fight, which ended when she stabbed the teen and the father hit her with a bar stool and threw her out of his apartment.

Ramos is charged with first-degree assault and armed criminal action. She's due back in court March 22nd.
