A Florida father stabbed his daughter with a sword when a family reunion turned ugly, police said.
Cops responded on Friday to the home in St. Cloud, Fla., and discovered 44-year-old Juan Javier Lovine bleeding from the head, his daughter wounded by the sword and one upset grandmother, whom they would eventually arrest.
The daughter, who lives in West Virginia, had brought her 4-year-old son to Florida for a family visit at the house grandmother Isabel Rego shares with Lovine, her son.
The trouble between Lovine and his daughter began Friday night.
“They just don’t get along,” Rego told theOrlando Sentinel.
Arguing turned to pushing, and Lovine shoved the young woman against a wall, police Sgt. Denise Roberts told the paper. Lovine’s daughter punched him in the eye, drawing blood.
That’s when Lovine pulled out a 5-foot-long sword and stabbed his daughter in the right forearm and chest, Roberts said.
Rego, 74, was charged with interfering with a law enforcement officer without violence after putting herself in the midst of a confrontation and trying to hit one of the cops, Roberts said.
Rego claimed the police overreacted. She said she was only trying to give her son a kiss before he was hauled away. She also claims Lovine only “poked” his daughter with the sword, a collector’s item he bought at Medieval Times.
“He didn’t mean to,” Rego told the paper. “The police put in there that he tried to kill her. That is not true. He loves her. They just don’t get along.”
Rego posted $500 bail and was released from Osceola County Jail.
Lovine was treated at Orlando Regional Medical Center and then booked into jail too. His daughter was treated at the same hospital. Police said her injuries weren’t life-threatening.
Rego said her 4-year-old great grandson slept through the whole fight, but she was still embarrassed.
“Family should not do that no matter what,” she said. “When you don’t get along with somebody, just stay away from that person.”
