DUNCAN — Duncan Police were dispatched to a home after a belligerent female threatened EMT personnel after attacking a male subject and later, threw the scissors at the DPD officer who arrived on scene.

Natasha Tyleine Perry, 39, is facing a felony charge for the assault on an emergency medical technician and a misdemeanor charge assaulting a police officer, according to paperwork filed in Stephens County Court.

Officer Jason Downs was dispatched to 1315 W. Hickory on July 18 at 1:03 a.m. to assist AMR EMTs on scene after it was advised Perry was attacking the EMTs.

Downs observed Perry chasing Andrew Flowers, across the street at 13th and Hickory, screaming she was going to kill him.

Officer Davidson arrived on scene and while trying to separate Perry and Flowers, Perry yelled at Downs she had scissors in her hands.

After being ordered to drop the scissors and not complying with the orders of Downs, Perry threw the scissors at Officer Davidson.

Perry was taken into custody and resisted attempts to handcuff her and was very belligerent through out the incident.

Flowers informed the officers Perry had stabbed him with the scissors and didn’t want anything done about the scratch marks on his body and laceration on his neck.

One of the EMTs informed the officers Perry had come after them with the scissors and spotted Perry on top of Flowers, swinging the scissors at him.

Perry’s injuries were documented by officers on scene and the scissors recovered had a small amount of blood on them.

While Perry was being transported to Stephens County Jail, she was very resistant and was strapped to a chair by the jail staff in order to control her in the facility.

Perry posted bond of $5,000 the same day and her preliminary hearing is set for Sept. 12 at 9 a.m.

Safe room procedures under review
Duncan elementary schools dismissed at 3 p.m. Monday, but it wasn’t until almost 5 p.m. that students who remained at the schools were released to go home.
Because of two storm systems moving through the area, the school district chose to keep students at the school as a precaution if their parents had not already picked them up. Superintendent Sherry Labyer said the plan was to keep students at the schools until the storms passed or moved away from the area as a way of keeping students safe. Buses didn’t start running until 4:45 p.m.
