MARCH 5--A New Mexico woman allegedly bashed her mother in the head with a vibrator during a confrontation late Sunday night that left the older woman bleeding profusely, police report.

Sheryl Claffy, 60, called cops to report that her daughter Cara, 35, “struck her on the head with a vibrator” and was attempting to flee from the Albuquerque home they share. The elder Claffy, bleeding from a head wound, pointed to a Ford truck and told cops her daughter was inside the vehicle.

While the car was only occupied by a male driver, an officer reported, “I did notice an electric vibrator on the passenger side floor of the vehicle,” according to a criminal complaint which does not further describe the vibrator.

Cara Claffy was subsequently apprehended upon exiting a nearby house. She told officers that while she had earlier argued with her mother, she did not assault her kin. In fact, Claffy claimed that her mother had emerged bleeding from a room in their home, and reported “that she had struck herself with a vibrator.”

Sheryl Claffy told cops that she was watching TV when “an argument sparked” with her daughter. Cara, she said, “grabbed an electric vibrator” and hit her over the head with the device. “Sheryl Claffy immediately felt blood streaming down her head at which time she fled the house to call for help,” an investigator noted.

Pictured in the above mug shot, Claffy was arrested for domestic violence and aggravated battery on a household member. She is locked up in the Bernalillo County jail in lieu of $3,500 bond. Court records show that Claffy’s rap sheet includes several prior collars for domestic violence, as well as a narcotics possession bust. (1 page)
