Back off boys, these kittens have claws!

BOYNTON BEACH — A young woman has been charged with aggravated battery after she stabbed her roommate with a butcher's knife in a fight over $20, Boynton Beach police officials said this morning.

Boynton Beach Police report that they were called to women's home at 610 SW 1st Street twice yesterday evening. The first call came at 5:29 p.m. when they arrested Patrick Ferdinand for domestic battery.

They were forced to return at 10:10 p.m. regarding the stabbing. According to information provided by Boynton Beach Police officials, 19-year-olds Chetanne Phanord and Valissa Alexander were in a heated argument when one of the grabbed a butcher's knife and stabbed the other.

They have since arrested Phanord and charged her with aggravated battery. Police report the events played out like this:

Police arrived to find Alexander on the ground with four stab wounds, one to her abdomen, two to her shoulder and another on her leg which cut her femoral artery.

Witnesses told police the two had fought over $20 and that Phanord had left the scene. She turned up an hour later in JFK Medical Center's emergency room, using a false name, according to the arrest report.

Phanord had two minor stab wounds to her forearm, the report says. She told police that they were in a fight and she used the knife only after Alexander slashed at Phanord's arm and dropped it.

Police said they decided to charge Phanord after they determined the nature of her injuries and that she left the scene, went to a friend's house to change clothes, got a ride to the hospital and attempted to use a fake name when getting treatment. A witness also heard Alexander yelling out that Phanord was stabbing her as they scuffled in the bedroom.

Alexander had surgery last night and remains in critical condition, police reported.

100 Teenage Girls In Brutal Knife And Teargas Streetbattle
February 22nd, 2008 Posted By Pat Dollard.



When The Times met some of the girls last week, they were revealed as ordinary adolescents brought up on multi-ethnic housing estates where violence has become the norm. They dress with style, use make-up, talk in sweet tones - and think that teargas and kitchen knives are appropriate for settling a teenage dispute over boys.

“Some of the girls are incredibly violent these days,” Mohammed, a 16-year-old boy, said. “They’re tougher than us. Just the other day a girl in school chased a boy all the way around the grounds with a knife. He had to climb up a tree to get away from her.”

Times Online:

When police learnt that rival gangs were planning a showdown in Chelles, east of Paris, they prepared for the sort of violence that has become routine in France’s troubled suburbs.

But even the most hardened officers were stunned as they arrived at the scene. The participants in what has become known as the battle of Chelles bus station were all girls aged between 14 and 17.

“They were fighting like the toughest of boys,” a policewoman who saw the confrontation this month said. “They had knives, screwdrivers, sticks and teargas and they were really going for each other. There must have been about 100 of them - some taking part and some there as spectators. It was quite frightening and if we hadn’t intervened quickly, it would have ended in a bloodbath.”

Eight girls were arrested and France was caught in anguished debate over les petites terreurs copying the brutal behaviour of their male counterparts, a concern that has been heightened by a 140 per cent increase in female adolescent violence since 2002.

When The Times met some of the girls last week, they were revealed as ordinary adolescents brought up on multi-ethnic housing estates where violence has become the norm. They dress with style, use make-up, talk in sweet tones - and think that teargas and kitchen knives are appropriate for settling a teenage dispute over boys.

Awa, for instance, is a member of the girl’s gang from Meaux, outside Paris, which confronted rivals from Noisiel, a town 25 miles (40 kilometres) away, at the bus station in Chelles, where they all attend a sixth-form college.

“It all began because one of the Noisiel girls started hanging around the boys in Meaux,” said the 16-year-old, who was wearing a black jacket and pristine white blouse. “We phoned her up and told her to stop. You don’t start going out with our boys if you’re from Noisiel. The girl took the call badly and said she was coming down with some of her friends to do us in. So we had to meet them.”

There was an initial clash by the 613 bus stop in Chelles on a Friday afternoon, with a dozen or so girls from each side kicking and punching each other. When that ended without a clear winner, the adolescents sent text messages to arrange another confrontation for the next Monday. This time they brought knives, other weapons and self-defence sprays containing a form of teargas.

“We quite often have to deal with girls’ violence these days,” said the policewoman. “But it’s usually four of five of them having a punch-up. I’ve never seen a pitched battle between gangs of girls like that before, although I’m not completely surprised because they all seem to want to imitate the boys these days. They swear and spit and are really aggressive.”

With turf wars between male gangs a common feature of the French suburbs, which have become synonymous with high immigration, segregation, riots, crime and drugs, it was only a matter of time before the practice spread to girls, she said.

“It’s all about defending your territory,” said Jenaba, another 16-year-old participant in the battle of Chelles. “We grew up together in Meaux, we have been friends since primary school and we go dancing together. It’s only natural that we should stick together against the Noisiel gang.”

When asked whether there was an ethnic dimension to the fight, she reacted with surprise. “It’s not the blacks against the Arabs or anything like that. We’re all mixed up together. It’s just one estate against another.”

“Some of the girls are incredibly violent these days,” Mohammed, a 16-year-old boy, said. “They’re tougher than us. Just the other day a girl in school chased a boy all the way around the grounds with a knife. He had to climb up a tree to get away from her.”

Girl fights are nothing new, even gang fights among girls is not unusual historically, but I am sad to see that they are degrading and denigrating themselves in using weapons and resorting to tribal wars. I have always maintained that using knives and guns is the cowards way. As for tribal wars; are humans evolving backwards now? When I was a young man living in a tough town I had loads of fights, but I always fought with my fists. Later on I learned some Martial Arts, but basically I still fought with my hands; there was access to knives of every kind and guns were easier to get than today; many is the time I have used a gun, - in target shooting, but never on a person. I respect a woman who can genuinely fight, but I can never, NEVER respect a coward of whatever gender who uses knives or guns. If I ever thought that my writing of fictional female violence was contributing in any way to twisting the minds of women to turn them to real violence, I would give up my writing immediately!
