MERCER COUNTY, WV (LOOTPRESS) – A woman is facing several charges after she bit a man’s leg and busted out windows.
According to Mercer County Deputies, on March 22, 2023, Karen Cook showed up at a home where she wasn’t allowed to contact a male victim. The victim had a DVP order against Karen Cook. Cook was upset that the male victim had a DVP order against her and became more upset. Cook began to kick on the door, dragged the male to the ground, and bit him on his left leg on the calf area. The victim got away, and Cook followed him, attempting to get him outside to talk to her.
After the victim told Cook he wasn’t coming outside to talk to her, Cook broke the kitchen window out and ran down the driveway after seeing law enforcement arriving.
