A Sunday fight between a Delhi Township couple has them both behind bars today.

Vivian Bates, 44, and James Roberts, 32, were arrested at their Brookforest Road home.

That’s where, Bates told police, Roberts threw a lamp at her and choked her almost in to unconsciousness during the 4:35 p.m. incident.

Bates is then accused of retaliating by taking a butcher knife and stabbing Roberts in the back, sending him to University Hospital.

Both were in court today.

Bates was charged with aggravated assault and domestic violence and ordered held on a $7,500 bond by Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Russell Mock.

Roberts was charged with domestic violence and ordered held under a $25,000 bond.
