The Incident Unfolds
On a typical Wednesday afternoon, just around 4:40 p.m., local police received reports of an active disturbance in a home in Charleston. When officers arrived on the scene, they were greeted by an alarming sight—a full-on fight involving multiple individuals. After assessing the situation, officers quickly identified Almuid. She was seen with a claw hammer in her possession, and it did not take long for the shocking details to emerge.
The Assault Details
According to reports, Almuid was involved in a confrontation with a boy who is currently a student at Burke High School. It appears that this confrontation stemmed from a previous argument between the two. In an extremely troubling turn of events, Almuid allegedly struck the victim multiple times with the hammer, particularly targeting the left side of the boy’s head, his left upper arm, and even his left hand. Talk about a serious escalation!
