PATRICK COUNTY, VA – An Ararat woman is in jail after being charged for trying to stab a man to death.


On Wednesday around 9:35 AM, deputies responded to 2355 Willis Gap Road for a call of a woman trying to stab a man.


There, deputies found Janice Marshall, 70, and Benton Hall, 58, in the home.


Evidence obtained, including a knife collected at the scene, during the investigation led deputies to charge Marshall, according to Patrick County Sheriff Dan Smith.
