Police were called to Kenner Close on Sunday afternoon

A woman has appeared in court charged with attempted murder after a man was found seriously injured in Lincoln.

Officers were called to reports of a man with stab wounds at a property on Kenner Close on Sunday.

The man, aged in his 60s, received treatment for injuries to his face, neck and leg and is said by police to be in a stable condition in hospital.

Roxanne Staples, 34, appeared before magistrates in the city earlier and was remanded in custody.

She is due to appear at Lincoln Crown Court at a date yet to be fixed.

Lincolnshire Police said Ms Staples had also been charged with making threats to kill, which related to a separate incident.
