PD: Grandma Threatens Child's Dad With Knife Over Late-Night Visits

The following police reports come from the Middletown Police public information officer. Individuals named here reflect charges filed, never a conviction.

A 63-year-old city woman, angry over her grandchild's father picking up the girl at all hours of the night, threatened to stab him with a knife, according to Middletown Police. 

On Oct. 18 at 10:43 p.m., police were called to a home on Timber Ridge Drive by the ex-boyfriend of a woman who said the two argued about him picking up their daughter, according to the report. 

The mother didn't want to wake her daughter but then relented, police say, and after going inside, she argued with her mother, Rosa Gonzalez, 63, of Woodbury Circle. 

According to the report, the child's mother came running outside holding the child, yelling that her mother had a knife and to run, followed by Gonzales, screaming, "I'm going to [expletive] kill him." 

An investigation revealed Gonzalez told police she was tired of the child's father taking him at all hours of the night and blocked her daughter from leaving with the girl. The report says she had no intention of stabbing or killing anyone but employed a scare tactic.

Gonzalez was charged with risk of injury to a child and disorderly conduct and police issued a restraining order against her.
