A 34-year-old woman was booked into a correctional facility after five criminal charges were filed against her for allegedly assaulting her partner in Toa Baja, the Puerto Rico Police Bureau reported. Cheylin Román Luciano, a Guaynabo resident, allegedly assaulted her partner on May 17, 2026. Authorities did not provide further details on the circumstances of the incident.

Two charges of mistreatment, one of aggravated mistreatment and one of mistreatment through threats were filed against her, all under Law 54 for the Prevention and Intervention with Domestic Violence. She also faces one charge of carrying and using a bladed weapon under Puerto Rico’s Weapons Law. The evidence was presented before Judge Aida Meléndez Juarbe of the Bayamón Court, who found probable cause for arrest on all five charges and set a global bail of $250,000.

Because the accused did not post the amount, she was ordered jailed. Agent Hetchen Rodríguez of the Motorized Unit of the Guaynabo Zone led the investigation.
