Teen feud leads to double stabbing.

A 17-year-old girl was arrested late Thursday afternoon for stabbing a man and his daughter, a classmate with whom the girl had been feuding, El Dorado police reported.

The girl was arrested for two counts of second-degree battery and is being held in a Miller County juvenile detention facility until an appearance Monday in Union County Juvenile Court.

The man, 38-year-old Wilpatrick Ford, and his 16-year-old daughter were transported to Medical Center of South Arkansas, where they were treated for stab wounds to the back and lower right leg, respectively.

A police report did not indicate that their injuries were life-threatening.

Three adults, the parents of the suspect and 16-year-old victim, also face misdemeanor charges in connection to the incident.

Officers responded just after 4 p.m. Thursday to a report of a stabbing in the 900 block of Rock Island.

Upon arrival, police said they saw several people standing in the street, including Ford, who told officers that his daughter had been stabbed.

Police said they noticed a large blood stain on front of Ford’s short and then saw that he was bleeding profusely from a large cut in the center of his back.

They said Ford’s daughter sustained a minor cut just above her right ankle.

Ford and his daughter told police they had been in an altercation with the suspect at the suspect’s residence in the 900 block of Rock Island.

As they were tending to the victims’ wounds, police said they heard the older girl’s parents arguing with the mother of the 16-year-old.

The suspect’s parents — Lisa Heard, 49, and Ernest L. Heard, 52, both of 901 Rock Island — were arrested for disorderly conduct when they did not comply with commands to be quiet, police said.

Ernest Heard told officers that he answered a knock at the door of his residence and saw three people yelling for his daughter come outside.

He said he told them to leave and closed the door.

Ernest Heard said he heard screaming outside the residence minutes later and saw the two girls fighting. He said he then “tried to break the fight apart,” telling officers he did not see his daughter stab anyone.

The 16-year-old girl told officers the dispute between her and the suspect spilled over from school.

She said she was at home when she began receiving text messages from the older girl demanding that she come to the Rock Island residence to fight.

The younger girl said she told her parents about the texts and they drove her to the suspect’s residence so the girls could “fight and end their issues completely.” When they arrived at the residence, they knocked on the door and demanded that the 17-year-old come outside to fight, the younger said.

She noted that the older girl exited the residence wearing two jackets, but she did not initially see the suspect with a knife.

Immediately after a brief physical altercation, she said the older girl produced a knife. The younger girl said she then began running but she tripped and fell in the street.

She said the suspect stabbed her in leg while she was down, and when Ford tried to intervene, the suspect stabbed him in the back.

The suspect then threw the knife into a grassy area on the side of the road and went back inside her residence, the 16-year-old said.

Police said they recovered a knife with a black handle from the grassy area.

The younger girl’s mother — Shanika S. Love, 32, of 1122 Martin Luther King — was arrested for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Love and the Heards were released on citations to appear next month in 35th Judicial District Court.
