WINONA, Minn. – A Winona woman was arrested after her boyfriend told police she came into his bedroom drunk to stab him in his sleep. Arrested was Amanda Lynn Musolf, 35, who police took the hospital to clear her medically for intoxication before jailing. This was about 10:10 p.m. in the 1050 block of East Howard Street. Actually it was the second police call to the address. In the first call, about 8:25, the man told police that his live-in girlfriend had locked him out and threatened to break all the windows and doors. Police said they thought they had calmed the situation. But, the man said, the argument resumed, still over her smoking tobacco in the house. The man said he retreated to a bedroom, closed the door, and fell asleep, then heard the click of a pocket knife on a table in the next room. She entered his room and threatened to stab him, he said. The man told police that he grabbed his own knife from a bedside table for protection and the girlfriend exited. He called 911. Police located the girlfriend in the house and made the arrest. Police also confiscated a folding knife. Musolf denied pulling a knife, police said.
