REHOBOTH BEACH - Brienna Wildy, 31, of Lewes, was arrested for felony assault and other charges after an incident on Tuesday morning, police said.
According to Delaware State Police spokesman Senior Cpl. Leonard DeMalto said that at approximately 11 a.m., troopers responded to a residence in the 37000 block of Burton Avenue regarding a trespassing complaint.
Police said troopers spoke with the 63-year-old homeowner, who advised that his acquaintance Ms. Wildy had entered his shed without his permission, despite her not being welcome on his property.
Cpl. DeMalto said troopers learned that Ms. Wildy also confronted a disabled 57-year-old woman at the shed. Ms. Wildy attacked the woman with a wooden board, causing swelling on her arm, police said.
Ms. Wildy continued arguing with the homeowner after the assault until troopers arrived at the scene, police said.
Troopers located Ms. Wildy on foot a short distance away, and she was detained without incident.
Charges against Ms. Wildy included second-degree burglary, second-degree assault, and aggravated menacing. She was arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 2 and was released on $5,000 unsecured bond.
