Beaufort woman attacks fiancee's car with sword

A Beaufort man told a Beaufort County Sheriff’s deputy that his fiancee attacked his car with a sword Monday morning after he told her he wanted to move out of their home on Polk Street, according to a Sheriff’s Office incident report.

The 42-year-old man told deputies that he’d been sharing the home with his 28-year-old bride-to-be and her sister for two years, and when he told her he wanted to move out Monday, she became angry, went into their bedroom and picked up a sword, the report said.

The report said the woman chased the man out of the home and around his 2002 GMC Envoy before she started hacking at the car with the sword.

The deputy noted a shattered passenger side mirror and “two narrow dents on the hood, approximately 18 inches long.”

Damage to the SUV was estimated at $1,000. The sword was seized by the Sheriff’s Office.

The man was not injured in the attack and opted not to press charges, according to the report.

The report did not indicate why he wanted to move out of the home.
