A man accused of stabbing his girlfriend multiple times has been charged in 2nd District Court.

The 51-year-old man faces an attempted homicide count for allegedly stabbing a female in the face, neck and leg at a motel in West Haven this past week.

Weber County Sheriff's Lt. Phil Howell said the woman also was beaten with a blunt object but that her injuries were not life-threatening. She was released from the hospital the next day.

The woman had a restraining order against the man, but she went to his motel room where the two reportedly got into an argument, which eventually lead to the violence, Howell said.
