Van Windows Don’t Stop Cannon Woman From Assaulting Former Boyfriend

An irate Cannon County Woman who was wanting to fight a former boyfriend was arrested recently.  According to Cannon County Sheriff’s Department Reports.  Deputies were dispatched to Tenpenny Road for a fight in progress.  Upon arrival Brian Minerd spoke to the authorities and advised that he stayed at the residence the night before.  Minerd went to the doctor earlier in the day and when he came back the female resident Sarah Toombs was acting irate.  Minerd said they were still friends but they used to be in a relationship together.  Minerd told police he didn’t want to deal with her when she was acting like this so he went to his van and got in it to make a call.  Toombs tried to get in the van but found that he had locked her out.  So instead of giving up she allegedly took a rock and threw it right through his window.  When that didn’t work she then went to the rear of the van and broke out the back window too,.  Minerd stated that he did not get out of the van and she wanted to fight him so jumped in the front window and started hitting him in the face with a rock.  At that time Minerd grabbed a knife he had in the vehicle and told him to stop or he would cut her.  At that point a third party Travis Nunley came to the vehicle and drug Toombs out trying to restrain her.  After interviewing Toombs, she stated that she got mad at Minerd because he said something about her deceased husband.  Deputies said that Toombs had blood on her shirt and her hands were cut up.  Ms Toombs was placed under arrest for Domestic Assault. She will answer to the charge August 4th in Cannon County General Sessions Court
