A woman has been taken to a psychiatric hospital following an alleged stabbing incident involving her partner in Berlin-Lichtenberg. According to officials from the Berlin police and public prosecutor's office, the 41-year-old suspect is accused of inflicting multiple stab wounds on her 49-year-old partner.

The incident occurred after a dispute between the couple, which escalated into violence. The police received a call on Friday morning, reporting the attack. It has been reported that the injured man managed to confine the woman within a room in their apartment to prevent further attacks.
