A Salisbury woman was charged with assaulting a woman who reportedly tried to stop her from stealing a window air conditioning unit.

The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office charged Brittany Desha Thompson, 26, of the 6300 block of Long Branch Road with misdemeanor simple assault.

A report said the victim tried to stop Thompson, who was trying to go inside the home, from taking the unit. Thompson was accused of pulling the victim by the hair and punching her in the head. Deputies found Thompson hiding behind a house across the street.

Thompson has since been released under a $1,000 secured bond. She is expected in court Nov. 12.
