45-year-old Laniece Gethers was jailed on April 8th after beating up her husband at their home on Summercrest Court and spoke with Jeffrey Gethers, who said he and his wife got into an argument while he was heading upstairs to go to sleep. The argument escalated, and Laniece punched him in the face, just above his left eye, causing visible injury. Officers spoke with two juveniles who were present during the incident. Jeffrey’s son told police he was playing a video game and heard both parties fighting and his dad yelling, “STOP HITTING ME, GET OFF ME!” Jeffrey’s daughter told police that she heard her dad yell for her to come help, and she witnessed Laniece punching him.
