Saskatoon police say 76-year-old man pushed down stairs after domestic dispute
Saskatoon police have arrested a woman who investigators believe may have pushed a 76-year-old man down a flight of stairs on Friday night.
When officers were called to a home in the 400 block of Overholt Crescent around 11:40 p.m. on Friday, they were initially told the man sustained injuries from falling down the stairs, Saskatoon police said in a news release.
According to police, the 76-year-old man’s injuries were “life-altering.” He was treated at the scene by paramedics and taken to hospital in serious condition.
Officers later learned there had been a domestic dispute that evening and he may have been pushed down the stairs.
Police arrested a 64-year-old woman later that night. She faces charges related to aggravated assault.
