CLERMONT, Fla. - A fight between a mother and daughter boiled over on Tuesday evening, leading to a stabbing.
Lake County sheriff’s deputies responded to a Clermont home shortly before 6 p.m. Aug. 18 after receiving a 911 call reporting that two people had been injured in a fight involving broken glass, according to an arrest affidavit.
Shavannah Nechole Stafford, 27, told deputies that her mother had attacked her with a fan and a lamp before breaking a glass jar over her head. Stafford said her mother suffered injuries while rolling on the broken glass.
Her mother gave deputies a different account. She said Stafford struck her with a fan and a lamp, then tried to hit her with a glass jar. The mother said she took the jar and struck Stafford with it, causing it to shatter. She alleged Stafford then picked up a shard and stabbed her.
Deputies reported finding the mother covered in blood with a wound to the upper-left side of her head and a cut on her left elbow. She was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center due to the severity of her injuries.
Deputies say Stafford had a small cut on her right pinkie and pieces of glass in her hair, according to the affidavit. Deputies identified her as the primary aggressor and arrested her after she was released from South Lake Hospital.
Stafford was charged with one felony count of aggravated battery in a domestic case and had bail set at $5,000. She was ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim.

"That's SHUH-vannah, not SUH-vannah."
Man, you could use her face to make gorilla cookies.
They were resourceful - seems they utilized most of the home goods department.
Can we arrange it so all the STABBINGS take place in one day and get it over with for the rest of the week?
Yea, black people have the coolest names.
The shame of this whole story is that they both could have made decent money if they'd sold tickets to the fight, or at least had a professional crew tape it for a pay per view.
It's a lot like NFL football.
Stabbings used to be a Saturday night thing except for special occasions. Now they can happen any day of the week.
NFL football used to be a Sunday thing except for special occasions, but now there are Monday night games and Thursday night games and and sometimes Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
Thunderdome style.
Damn that’s fugly.
RE: ...her mother suffered injuries while rolling on the broken glass.
Never a good idea for rolling.
Better, as the Buck Owens song says...
Well, now where was you last Saturday night
While I was lyin’ in jail.
Hey, you’re walkin’ the streets with another man.
Wouldn’t even go my bail.
Well, I’m rollin’ in my sweet baby’s arms
Rollin’ in my sweet baby’s arms.
Lay around the shack
Till the mail train comes back
Then I’ll roll in my sweet baby’s arms.
And then they say she got really mad.

Came in second in the Miss Lake County contest. Won on looks but messed up in the talent competition at the end of her piano piece of Bach’s Partita No. 2 in C minor.
Since then she’s held a simmering grudge against the world.
I swear in complete good faith I recently entered “Why are black women so angry?” In Google’s AI function. I was surprised to learn that that is a false, racist trope.
Now I know. How could I have been so wrong?
“That’s SHUH-vannah, not SUH-vannah.”
Yeah? So where was “Florida man” when all this was going on?
What do y’all think this is?, a waffle house
First heard that joke in the Wild Geese Brit club in the Sinai in ‘86. Brits had a secretary that was Mimi Bobeck’s twin, right down to the makeup. She didn’t bat an eye and assured us she would have plenty of suitors “after the Yanks have been here a month.”
Somebody had sex with that??? Ick.
Oh. That’s the daughter. Never mind. I bet the mother is a looker. 🙄
