HOPE MILLS, N.C. (AP) - Authorities say a teenage girl has been accused of stabbing and throwing bleach on the face of another teenage girl.

The Fayetteville Observer reports (https://bit.ly/2qjTedJ ) a 16-year-old was arrested Saturday and charged with attacking 17-year-old Malaysia Bingham.

The teen’s arrest warrant states she waited for Bingham to arrive at the park and then stabbed her before throwing a container of bleach at her face. Bingham suffered a 9-inch stab wound across her chest from the knife.

Bingham was taken to the hospital, but her condition hasn’t been released.
