Police: Woman, 18, Busted For Beating Up Boyfriend, 65
Meet Destiny Simmone Morris.
The 18-year-old is jailed on a felony charge after allegedly battering her 65-year-old boyfriend during a confrontation Sunday evening in their Florida residence.
Police responded to the home after an unknown 911 caller reported that, “an elderly male was being beaten up.”
According to cops, the victim said Morris “pulled his hair, punched him in the ribs and head, and threw him to the ground.” The alleged attack occurred inside the couple’s Clearwater home and in the property’s front yard, a criminal complaint reports.
The victim, who “had an obvious laceration/abrasion to his left arm which was bleeding,” told police that he and Morris had been together for about four months and are “in an active romantic/sexual relationship.”
Morris, seen above, reportedly made “spontaneous statements admitting to hitting the victim,” cops say.
Charged with battery on a person aged 65 or older, Morris was booked into the county jail, where she is being held in lieu of $2500 bond. A judge has ordered Morris to have no contact with the victim. The teenager--who was convicted earlier this year of disorderly intoxication--has also been directed to stay away from the man’s home.
