Christmas tree topper used as weapon in St. Lucie County

ST. LUCIE COUNTY — It could be argued that Kiley Robertson is a top contender to get coal in her stocking this Christmas.

That’s because Robertson, 26, was arrested Oct. 23 after accusations she hit her sister over the head with a “hard plastic Christmas tree topper,” an affidavit states.

St. Lucie County Sheriff’s deputies went to the incident on Tropical Isles Circle and reported the victim “had a pronounced knot, swelling, to the back of her head.”

Robertson’s sister told investigators that Robertson came over to her grandmother’s home because her mother died that day.

Robertson started rummaging through her deceased mother’s belongings. Robertson’s sister asked her to stop, saying they’d go through the items later.

Eventually, a shoving match broke out. The grandmother “got into the middle” of the dispute and fell down, the affidavit states.

Robertson’s sister said Robertson struck her on the back of the head with an angel, plastic Christmas tree topper, as she went to get her grandmother up.

A photo provided by the sheriff’s office depicts a gilded, angelic figure next to a hairbrush and wrapped present. It did not appear to have been damaged in the fracas.
