Alaine E. Shultz
An Oak Ridge woman is accused of biting her male roommate and hitting him with a golf club early Friday because she thought he had been cheating on her, authorities said.
Alaine E. Shultz, 33, did not respond to verbal commands to leave her apartment on West Vanderbilt Avenue when the Oak Ridge Police Department responded at about 12:25 a.m. Friday, according to court records.
Officers found her roommate, Linus Goodman, sitting by the front door bleeding from his head, according to an arrest warrant for Shultz filed by ORPD Officer Tim Buckner.
“While outside of the door, I could see the reflection of the female through the door glass standing against the wall in the hallway with what appeared to be a golf club as if she was waiting to ambush officers when they came in,” Buckner said.
He said Shultz then moved out of his sight, and he and other officers went in to the apartment and located her with a golf club lying beside her. Shultz was arrested and charged with aggravated assault.
Officers learned that Shultz and Goodman live together, Buckner said. Shultz allegedly took Goodman’s phone and began to bite and hit him with the golf club “because she thought he had been cheating on her,” said the warrant, which was filed in Anderson County General Sessions Court.
After her arrest, Shultz was taken to the Anderson County Detention Facility in Clinton. Her bond has been set at $50,000, and she remained jailed early Friday afternoon.
Goodman was taken to Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge to be treated for his injuries.

I wonder if an iron or wood were used on those strokes.
Regardless, she’s in the rough now.
I’ll just play through. Thank you.
