COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – A man has been arrested while a woman remains at large after one person was stabbed in the face late last month in East Columbus.

According to a criminal complaint, Columbus police responded to reports of a stabbing in the 2900 block of East 11th Avenue, near Cassady Avenue, on Dec. 30 just before 7 a.m.

Officers found a woman who had been stabbed in her left eye socket, with the knife still lodged in her head. Before being taken to a hospital, the victim told police she was attacked by Derrick Ellison and “Candy” Ellison.

Police said the victim suffered a stroke while in the hospital where she currently remains unresponsive and has yet to be able to provide further information.

Derrick Ellison, 69, was detained and told police during an interview that he had nothing to do with the alleged attack, but did admit that he, “Candy” and the victim had all previously done drugs together.

Derrick was eventually released later that day, but a warrant was issued for his arrest on Jan. 7. He was placed in custody on Monday and a Franklin County Municipal Court judge issued him a $250,000 bond on a felonious assault charge.

Police also received an anonymous tip, describing “Candy” as 44-year-old Cassandra Ellison, who police believe is known to frequent the Gateway Apartment Homes on East Seventh Avenue. A warrant for her arrest was also issued on Jan. 7, but she is not currently in custody.
