THIBODAUX, La. (WGNO) — A mother and daughter from Thibodaux have been arrested after their fight allegedly resulted in an infant’s skull being fractured on Tuesday, May 27.
According to the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called to Karla Drive on report of a domestic disturbance at the home of Disheekia McDowell.
There, they say they learned that two women, identified as Disheekia McDowell and Jada McDowell, were reportedly fighting and hitting each other with household items. During the fight, Jada allegedly picked up her infant daughter while continuing to fight Disheekia, resulting in the infant being injured.
Investigators say a local hospital determined that the child had a skull fracture, and arrest warrants were then obtained for both women.
They have been booked into the Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex on one count each of domestic abuse battery with child endangerment and second-degree cruelty to juveniles. Bail was set at $160,000 for Disheekia and $105,000 for Jada.
