US woman 'stabbed husband after bad sex'

A US woman who allegedly stabbed her husband with scissors because she was disappointed with his performance in bed has been arrested for assault.

Police say Michelle Thomas, 26, became enraged after her husband failed to satisfy her in a sex session on Tuesday, the Smoking Gun website reports.

Officers were called to the couple's home after Ms Thomas slashed at the man with scissors.

The man suffered superficial cuts to his chest, leg and hand.

Ms Thomas told police her husband was drunk and had grabbed her by the wrists before throwing her on their bed.

But police found that Ms Thomas had no visible injuries from the alleged attack.

Police charged Ms Thomas with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, despite her husband refusing to press charges.
