26-year-old Victoria Parks was involved in a domestic disturbance with her sister, Brittany Cothron, and brother-in-law, Shawn Starks, at their Apollo apartment on November 28th, 2023. When officers arrived and made contact with Starks and Cothron, they told police that Parks had assaulted them. Starks and Cothron stated that Parks and her boyfriend had come over, so they let them inside. The couple then informed officers that there had been an ongoing feud between the two parties, which led to an argument shortly after they entered. During the argument, Parks got into the middle of the altercation and punched Starks in the face. According to the couple, Parks then picked up a large vacuum and swung it at Starks, hitting him in the head twice. After hitting Starks, Parks continued to swing the vacuum around and hit two walls, causing visible damage to them both. Starks and Cothron also reported that when they asked Parks to leave, she refused and argued with her sister instead. Cothron reported that during the argument, Parks started pulling on her arms and attempted to assault her. While officers were on the scene, Starks and Cothron informed them that Parks and her boyfriend had already left before they arrived. Victoria Parks was later taken into custody and charged with domestic assault, aggravated assault, and vandalism on August 24th, 2024.
