TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - A woman is facing charges after being accused of hitting two victims in the head with a pair of bolt cutters. 

The Tallahassee Police Department responded to a battery that occurred on Gibbs Drive on Sunday. 

The officer made contact with a female victim, who had sustained a wound to the left side of her head behind her ear. Her injuries were consistent with being struck by a blunt object. 

At the same location, the officer found a male victim, who had sustained injures to his right eye. 

The victims claim that Shanora Berry and her husband, Floyd Berry, came to their door, according to a police report. They said Shanora began to argue with the female victim and began to wave around the bolt cutters in her hand. 

According to reports, Shanora hit both victims with the tool in the doorway of the residence, starting a fight. 

Police later found the bolt cutters, saying the weapon had possible "hair and blood" on them. 

Leon County EMS arrived on scene and treated the victims for their injuries. They both were transported to TMH. 

Shanora Berry was arrested and taken into custody for Aggravated Battery. She was transported to the Leon County Jail without incident.
