KATV reporter attacked

Anne Pressly, 26, a news reporter for KATV, was assaulted in her home on Club Road in the Country Club of Little Rock neighborhood last night and suffered serious wounds. A police spokesman said Pressly was "beaten and stabbed" and that her injuries were "life-threatening." A police report notes that she was bleeding from the head. The police do not have a suspect.

She was on her Facebook page last night at 9:51 thanking those who went to see her 30 second part in the movie "W." Pressly has been with KATV since June, 2004.

Update (4:45 p.m.): She may not have been stabbed. She was beaten severely enough, apparently, to tear the skin. Her injuries are said to include blunt force trauma.

Update (Wednesday): Pressly remains in critical but stable condition.
