A South Carolina man slashed his ex-girlfriend’s head and neck with a “large” knife Friday morning and remains at large, police said.
Deputies responded to a disturbance call from a home in Easley. S.C. around 7:15 a.m., the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release. When deputies arrived at the home, they found a 36-year-old woman with lacerations on head and neck, the release said.
The woman told the deputies that her wounds were “caused from being cut with a large knife,” according to the release. She was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery, the release said.
Investigators identified the slashing suspect as the woman’s ex-boyfriend, 39-year-old Boyce Derek Lowrance, who fled on foot moments before sheriff’s deputies arrived at the home, the release said.
Further evidence determined that a “verbal dispute” inside the home had turned into a “violent confrontation.” The ex-boyfriend had produced a knife and cut the victim on her head and neck, police said.
