Two Wichita Falls women needed medical treatment after being attacked by their roommate.

Just before 8:00am yesterday morning, 61-year-old Melvin Louis Pope allegedly attacked two women with a tree branch at the Catalina Motel in the 1100 block of Scott Ave. The victims claim Pope hit them multiple times with the stick, striking them in the chest, arms and face.

One of the victims was taken to the emergency room and treated for minor injuries, while the other was treated on the scene.

After his arrest, police say Pope threatened the women, telling officers they would need a lot of yellow tape after he killed them.

He's been charged with two counts of assault family violence and two counts of obstruction or retaliation.
