(AP)  A 17-year-old girl working at a restaurant in Iowa City has been accused of stabbing a customer.

The girl was charged Tuesday with attempted murder.  She is being held on a $500,000 bond.

A criminal complaint says the girl attacked a woman Monday at Red Pepper Deli & Grill.  Police say the girl stabbed the woman several times with an 8-inch knife from the restaurant's kitchen.

The customer's injuries, including to her left hand and left elbow, are not life-threatening.

Police are not elaborating on a motive, but investigators say the teen and woman may have a history.

It's unclear whether the teen will be charged as an adult.
