Madison Police Department arrested a woman who attempted to stab a man she knew early Sunday morning outside of Capitol Centre Market.

According to an MPD incident report, 35-year-old Shacole Burks claimed the victim came at her first.

But, according to the recovered video evidence, Burks was shown raising a nine-inch steak knife and “slashing” downward toward the victim four to five times.
