Mother Charged After 14-Year-Old Girl Was Struck ‘Multiple Times’ with Stanley Cup in Attack Outside Summer School

A mother has been charged with assault after allegedly hitting a teenager with a Stanley Cup at a school in New York.

Toni Monroe, 35, allegedly struck 14-year-old Madison Evans “multiple times” with a metal water bottle during a fight between Evans and Monroe’s 15-year-old daughter on Aug. 12 at Brentwood High School in Long Island, Suffolk County police said in a news release.

Police said the 14-year-old was leaving school around 11 a.m. when she and a 15-year-old girl exchanged words. Monroe then allegedly hit Evans several times with the metal water bottle before a security guard broke up the fight.

Monroe was arrested shortly after the incident in the school parking lot. The injured teen was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The injured teenager has been identified as Brentwood High School student Madison Evans by ABC 7 New York.

Video obtained by the outlet shows two teenage girls arguing at the school. At one point, a person believed to be Monroe tells one of the girls, who appears to be her daughter, “Give me your Stanley.” She then seems to strike the other girl repeatedly with the Stanley Cup as the girl screams.

Evans got a deep cut on her forehead that needed 17 stitches, according to ABC 7 New York.

“She threw a punch, I threw a punch back and we started fighting, and her mom just came in and started beating me with the cup,” Evans said, according to NBC New York. “Next thing you know, I get pushed into the school and I saw blood dripping… I saw blood all over my hands.”

Monroe was charged with assault in the second degree and endangering the welfare of a child.

At her court appearance on Aug. 13, Monroe’s lawyer said she was at the school for a meeting about her daughter being bullied, according to ABC 7 New York. The lawyer denied that Monroe hit the girl and claimed that Evans attacked her daughter first.

Monroe was released with supervision and had to sign an order of protection to stay away from Evans.

“We are aware of the incident that occurred yesterday during dismissal involving two students and a parent,” Brentwood High School said in a statement on Aug. 13, according to News 12 Long Island. “The safety and well-being of our students is always our highest priority, and this type of behavior is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in our schools.”
