Police arrested a Rockville Centre woman for a stabbing that the victim originally said three men committed.

Diana Graham, 51, of Rockville Centre, was arrested and charged with second degree assault and possession of a dangerous weapon after she allegedly stabbed a man that she lived with. Police said the two were not married.

According to police, the victim originally said that he was riding his bicycle on North Park Avenue near Front Street at about 11:40 p.m. on May 7 when two men came out of a car and attacked him. He told police he was able to get away and ride his bike home, where he realized he had been stabbed. The victim took himself to a hospital where he was treated for his injury and released.

Rockville Centre police continued the investigation, which led to the arrest of Graham on May 9. Police have not charged the victim for his false report.
