A woman assaulted her elderly mother in a street brawl that unfolded, while a three-year-old child was left in the backseat of a vehicle on Friday morning, according to authorities.

Escambia County Sheriff's Office Spokeswoman Terri Tolbert reported that the altercation between 23-year-old Jina Barlow of Brewton and her mother took place at approximately 10:30 a.m.

9-1-1 operators dispatched deputies to the area of Appleton Road and Lowery Landing Road after a call came in advising that two females were fighting in the middle of the intersection.

When deputies arrived they found an elderly woman who said she had been assaulted by her daughter according to witnesses. The injured elderly woman refused medical treatment at the scene, but was advised to go to the hospital.

Tolbert said the elderly woman did go to the hospital, but she decided to be transported in a privately owned vehicle.

Barlow was identified by deputies as the violator in the fight.

She was arrested and charged with third-degree assault, reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of a child. Deputies said that there was a three-year-old child left in the backseat of a vehicle, while the fight took place.

A brief investigation into Barlow revealed that she also had other outstanding warrants at the time of this arrest.
