Police say an Illinois woman pulled a knife on a Dubuque man and attempted to back over him with her vehicle. 28 year old Romeika Wade of Chicago was arrested Wednesday on charges of domestic assault while displaying a weapon, possession of marijuana and interference with official acts. A report says Wade assaulted 35 year old Michael Sinclair of Dubuque, the father of their 5-year-old child. Sinclair told police he was walking along Valley Street around 4pm Tuesday when Wade drove alongside him, exited her vehicle and opened a folding knife while threatening Sinclair. Sinclair told police that Wade chased him while holding the knife and he ran toward his residence. Wade returned to her vehicle, put it in reverse, and accelerated toward Sinclair. Sinclair believed Wade was attempting to run over him with her vehicle.
