Police: Geneva woman charged with assault, forgery after pair of incidents

Police say a Geneva woman was arrested on several felony charges after two separate incidents earlier this month.

On June 6, April Patterson was charged with criminal mischief and attempted assault after allegedly biting a police officer in the arm- and kicking a marked police cruiser.

According to a press release, the kick caused damage to the vehicle.


A little over a week later in a separate incident, Patterson is accused of stealing a personal check from another person and forging their name on it before attempting to cash it.

She was charged with forgery, criminal mischief, and attempted assault- as felonies.

The charges will be answered at a later date in local court.
