An Oak Harbor woman is facing a felony charge for allegedly hitting her boyfriend repeatedly with a fireplace poker, according to court records.

Prosecutors charged Mimi C. Basoco, 42, in Island County Superior Court Nov. 3 with assault in the second  degree with a deadly weapon. The single count was charged as domestic-violence related.

A 40-year-old Oak Harbor man reported the alleged assault to police on Oct. 29, a few days after it occurred.

The man said the assault occurred after he confronted Basoco about a call from her ex-boyfriend. The man claimed he was sitting on the couch when she came up behind him and hit him in head and the back with a fire poker, according to the police report.

The man said he went into the bedroom and blocked the door with a dresser to keep her out.

The officer noted that the man had a puncture wound on his back, scabs on his neck and waistline and bruises on his back and forearm.

The officer arrested Basoco, who claimed that her boyfriend broke her tooth a year ago. She allegedly said she hit him with the fireplace poker because he attacked her, the report states.
