A 39-year-old woman has been charged after allegedly choking her former partner during an altercation on Monday night.
Police say the woman confronted her former partner in Chifley and during the conversation the woman became aggressive, demanding the other woman’s phone and allegedly choking her when she refused to hand it over.
The woman then allegedly snatched the phone and damaged it before leaving.
The other woman reported the incident and at about 4.30am on Tuesday, police officers arrested the 39-year-old woman at a home in Fisher.
She is facing aggravated property damage, choking, suffocating or strangling another person and aggravated common assault charges.
