A Texas woman was arrested after police said she allegedly threatened to kill her boyfriend while armed with two kitchen knives following a domestic dispute inside a residence.

According to investigators, officers responded to a reported family violence call during the evening of July 10. After speaking with those involved, police said they learned the couple had been arguing over a disagreement involving one of the woman’s friends before the confrontation escalated.

The boyfriend told officers the woman first threw her cellphone at him but missed. Police said she then allegedly began striking him repeatedly, and despite his attempts to push her away, she continued the assault. He later told investigators he tried to stop the attack by restraining her until she calmed down.

A Texas business owner was arrested after the authorities reportedly uncovered a large-scale fraud scheme involving high-end vehicles and fraudulent repair claims.

According to investigators, the operation centered on a shop in Houston, where the suspect was taken into custody on March 31 during the execution of a search warrant. The raid was carried out by multiple units, including an auto crimes task force, as part of an ongoing investigation into suspicious vehicle liens.

The authorities alleged the scheme relied on filing fraudulent mechanic’s liens, which allowed the suspect to claim that expensive repair work had been performed on vehicles that reportedly showed no signs of damage. In some cases, those claims reportedly reached $60,000 or more. Officials said inspections revealed that no repairs had been completed, and that documentation supporting the claims may have been falsified.
