A Saint Paul woman stabbed a man in the chest with a pair of scissors during a late-night argument at her apartment, prosecutors say.

Helena Lashirl Moses, 41, faces a charge of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon. The charge was filed September 8 in Ramsey County District Court.

According to the complaint, police responded to a Saint Paul address at about 11:15 p.m. on September 5 after a man called 911 and reported that he had been stabbed. Officers arriving at the scene heard arguing coming from the rear of the residence. An officer found the victim, shirtless and bleeding from a wound on the right side of his chest, standing behind a vehicle.
