R&B singer Angie Stone has been arrested and charged with aggravated assault after an allegedly brutal altercation with daughter Diamond, reports indicate.
She allegedly knocked out her offspring’s teeth on Tuesday.
DeKalb County Ga., police stated that Stone, 53, is accused of wielding a metal stand and using the object to knock out several of her daughter’s teeth.
She told officers that she did so in self-defense, however.
According to the singer, Diamond punched her in the face. It’s not clear whose account is accurate or how aggressively the case will be pursued.
In any case, what is clear is that it got ugly in a hurry.
The argument reportedly began when Stone told Diamond to “clean up and get her children under control,” and it ended when a family friend intervened.
Three-time Grammy nominee Stone is best known for songs like “No More Rain (In This Cloud),” “I Wanna Thank Ya,” and “Wish I Didn’t Miss You.”
Her other hits include “More Than a Woman,” “U-Haul,” and “Baby,” and she has appeared on R&B Divas: Atlanta, as well as Celebrity Wife Swap.
