DAYTON -- A mother was arrested after an argument with her daughter led to threatening her with a samurai sword. Dayton police said they were originally called about a mother and daughter argument about midnight Thursday.
Marie Tingle, 39, told police during that visit that her daughter was talking back to her, running around with boys and being disrespectful and she asked the officers to take the 16-year-old girl to the Juvenile Detention Center. Officers said they couldn't arrest someone for being disrespectful but they did offer Tingle some ideas on discipline and suggested counseling.
About 30 minutes later, the same officers were again dispatched to the residence. According to police, the daughter had called 911 claiming the mother "is mental and believes a samurai sword is proper parental discipline."
The girl said she and her mother began arguing after the officers left the first time about the ideas of discipline they offered. The girl said that after police had left, her mom yelled at her, "Did you hear that, I can beat your ass and they would not do anything about it." The girl claims her mother became more angry and grabbed a samurai sword and began waving it around and yelling at her.
Police found the sword next to the fireplace and took it as evidence. It was described as three feet long with a snake head at the end. Marie Tingle told police her daughter had been arguing with her and would not be quiet, even though she kept telling her to shut up.
Police said the mother became agitated as she told her story. The mother told police she grabbed the sword and swung it around to scare her daughter. When asked why she wanted to scare her daughter, she said she just wanted her to shut up.
Marie Tingle was arrested and charged with child endangering and domestic violence. The daughter was left in the custody of an aunt and a case worker for Children Services was notified.
Darn shame the cops confiscated the sword. It looks like she had a real collectable....

“The girl said that after police had left, her mom yelled at her, “Did you hear that, I can beat your ass and they would not do anything about it.” The girl claims her mother became more angry and grabbed a samurai sword and began waving it around and yelling at her.”
I mean, my Dad didn’t need to call the cops or grab a samurai sword to convince me that he could kick the crap out of me if he wanted to.
