Tuesday, February 3, deputies with Texas County Sheriff’s Department responded to a residence on AP Highway in the Success area for a report of an assault involving an axe. A male victim was transported to Texas County Memorial Hospital in Houston by private vehicle with non-life-threatening injuries. The male reported being struck by a “battleaxe” wielded by a female, later identified as Lisa Zaemisch, during an argument at the residence.
Deputies located Zaemisch concealing herself in the residence along with the weapon and other evidence consistent with the alleged assault. Zaemisch was arrested and transported to the Texas County Jail.
Lisa M. Zaemisch, 46, of Success was charged with First Degree Domestic Assault by Texas County Prosecuting Attorney Parke Stevens. Zaemisch was held in the Texas County Jail pending $500,000 bond.
The above charges are mere accusations and are not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of the charges must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
