A Damariscotta woman faces an assault charge after allegedly hitting another woman in the face with a Budweiser bottle outside a Wiscasset bar early Sunday.
Jade Robbins, 24, faces a charge of Class B aggravated assault, a felony with a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine.
Robbins and the other woman were at the bar of the Schooner Inn, according to a statement by Patrolman Paul Rubashkin, of the Wiscasset Police Department.
The other woman told Rubashkin that Robbins “followed her from the bar out to her vehicle and started punching her,” the patrolman said in a statement. Robbins then “hit her with a Budweiser beer bottle across the left cheek.”
The alleged victim had “obvious injuries” to her left cheek and told Rubashkin “she believed she lost consciousness for a moment” during the assault. She drove herself to the Miles campus of LincolnHealth after the incident.
Robbins allegedly told the woman “she ruined her family’s life by filing a domestic violence charge” against Robbins’ brother, Nicholas Robbins.
Rubashkin and Patrolman Perry Hatch arrested Robbins at the Schooner Inn the afternoon of March 30.
Robbins posted $100 cash bail March 31. Her bail conditions prohibit the possession or use of alcohol, illegal drugs or dangerous weapons and allow random searches and tests for the same. The conditions prohibit contact with the alleged victim and require Robbins to abide by a curfew.
Robbins is due to appear in Lincoln County Superior Court at 8:30 a.m., Thursday, May 1.
