Why is this nut still out?
CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — A Cleveland Heights woman, who was charged in 2012 for hiring a hit man to kill a person wearing fur, has been arrested after she allegedly stabbed someone in a Cleveland Heights church on Wednesday evening. Meredith Lowell, 35, remains in jail on a $1 million bond in connection with the attack, which police believe was prompted by the victim wearing fur.
Lowell walked into Fairmount Presbyterian Church, 2757 Fairmount Boulevard, and allegedly stabbed a woman multiple times before children’s choir practice, according to a Cleveland Heights police report. When police responded to the church, the female victim was on the floor, surrounded by blood, holding the left side of her body.
A witness told police that she was sitting with the victim inside the main hall of the church with children as they waited for choir practice to begin when Lowell “suddenly appeared and walked through the wooden doors that leads to the main hall.”
Lowell allegedly started “pushing or punching” the victim before walking away, according to the report. The victim, who had two stab wounds on her left arm and another one in her left abdomen, told police at the hospital that she didn’t know she was stabbed until she saw the blood. The victim’s injuries are not considered life-threatening, but she remains hospitalized.
