How awful, Arkansas television anchor Anne Pressly, who filmed a bit role for the new movie “W.”, was found in her home early Monday suffering from life-threatening injuries caused by a brutal beating.
Anne Pressly, 26, the morning anchor for KATV-TV in Little Rock, was found by her mother at about 4:30 a.m. lying in her bed and bleeding from “severe injuries,” police said.
“We do believe she was beaten,” Sgt. Cassandra Davis of the Little Rock Police Department told FOXNews.com. She said the injuries were to the upper body and included stab wounds.
Pressly was listed in critical condition, Davis said. She was taken to St. Vincent Infirmary Medical Center.
Pressly may have been attacked during a robbery as her purse is missing. But Davis said that police haven’t found any forced entry to her home on Club Road in Little Rock.
“It’s not a neighborhood known for any violent crime,” Davis said.
Police do not have suspects in the case, but said they were questioning neighbors, friends and co-workers, Davis said.
Pressly was seen in “good condition” at 10:30 p.m. and her mother, who normally gives Pressly a wake-up call, found her daughter, Davis said.
“She didn’t get an answer so she went to the address on Club Road, and she found her daughter inside the residence lying in the bed suffering from some severe injuries,” Davis told FOXNews.com.
Pressly’s dogs, which were also missing, have been found.
According to her resume on the Internet Movie Database, the ABC anchor played a female commentator in Oliver Stone’s new movie, “W.” She also played a sorority girl on the soap opera “As the World Turns.”
A representative from Lionsgate, the distributor of “W.,” did not immediately return a request for comment.
Pressly is a 2004 graduate of Rhodes College in Memphis, Tenn.
During its 11:30 a.m. newscast, anchor Jason Pederson read a story about the attack and said Pressly was hospitalized.
“We would ask that you keep Anne in your thoughts and, especially, in your prayers,” Pederson said.
Our thoughts are with Anne and her family. Lets hope she makes a full recovery.
