Woman robbed

A woman returning home before dawn today was robbed of her purse that contained a payroll check, another check, $52 and personal papers, the Wayne County Sheriff's Office reported.

Ms. Kelly was taken to Wayne Memorial Hospital, where she was treated and released.

Assaulted

A 20-year-old Goldsboro man was cut Thursday by a woman in her home in the 200 block of Rosewood Avenue, a Goldsboro police report said.

Antonio Kelvin McLean of Central Heights Road told officers that he was arguing with the woman at about 6 a.m. The woman took their daughter, picked up a knife and went out the back door, the report said. When he said he tried to stop her, she turned around and cut him.

McLean was taken to Wayne Memorial, where he was treated and released, a spokeswoman said.

Burglary

A woman heard several men kick in a door Thursday night at her home on Daffodil Drive and then steal an estimated $7,000 worth of jewelry, according to a report filed with the Wayne County Sheriff's Office.

Three black men fled in a burgundy car. One was described as being in his 30s, 6 feet tall and 240 pounds with long black hair in an afro. He wore a gray T-shirt and blue jeans.
