Jocelyn Wildenstein, a New York socialite known for her extensive plastic surgery, was arrested Wednesday morning and charged with felony assault after allegedly cutting her long-time boyfriend, Lloyd Klein with a pair of scissors.

According the New York Post, sources report that she went into a "violent rage" and "grabbed a pair of scissors and slashed his chest, drawing blood."

Lloyd was then able to fend Wildenstein off and trap her in a closet until the police were able to arrive. This entire episode took place at the couple's apartment inside Trump World Tower, a skyscraper near the United Nations.

Wildenstein gained notoriety in the 1990s after undergoing a series of cosmetic procedures to make herself appear more, well, feline. She also made headlines in 1999 with her record-breaking divorce settlement from art dealer Alec Wildenstein; she received $2.5 billion, plus an additional $100 million per year for 13 years, according to the Daily Mail.
