Cops say Elgin bride-to-be stabbed fiance

An Elgin woman was being held on $50,000 bond Monday, after she stabbed her future husband in the arm with a knife, police said.

Kimberly A. Brady, 33, of the 0-100 block of South Crystal Street, was charged with aggravated domestic battery, a felony, as well as two misdemeanor counts of domestic battery.

Police say that the couple on Sunday were embroiled in an argument inside their home, when she stabbed him once in his left forearm.

Police did not have any information on the severity of his wound, but did say he was taken to Provena St. Joseph Hospital in Elgin for treatment. Police arrived at the hospital at 3:11 a.m. Sunday to interview him about the stabbing, Deputy Police Chief Jeffrey Swoboda said.

He was treated and released from the hospital Monday, said Heather Gates, a hospital spokeswoman.

Meanwhile, Judge Bruce W. Lester on Monday morning set Brady's bond at $50,000, which means she needs $5,000 to get out of jail.

She was unable to make bond and was taken to the Kane County lockup.

Her next court date is Nov. 18 at the Kane County Judicial Center.

She faces up to seven years prison, if found guilty of the felony charge.
