A protection order was issued against an East Price Hill woman after she threw a knife at her daughter and granddaughter Monday, cutting the granddaughter, according to police.

A verbal altercation turned violent when Ivory Taper, 45, threw a knife that cut her granddaughter's right foot, police stated in an affidavit.

A protection order was issued against Taper on Tuesday. The order prevents her from initiating contact with her daughter and granddaughter, entering their home or destroying or discarding any possessions owned by them, the court order stated.

Taper was also ordered by the court to remain at least 500 feet away from her daughter and granddaughter, according to court records.

Taper was arraigned Tuesday. She is awaiting an Aug. 27 trial in Hamilton County Municipal Court, and is facing two counts each of domestic violence and felonious assault.

Taper's bond was set at $25,000 for both of the domestic violence charges and $2,500 for the assault charges.
