Staff report

Terry Rivers

Terry Rivers

A baton, beer bottle, machete and a golf club were the reported weapons of choice Wednesday night when two women got into a fight at Allway and Norman streets, Charleston police said.

Police arrived to find a 58-year-old woman with a cut on her head holding a golf club that reportedly belonged to the suspect.

A police report gave this account:

The two women got physical after one got in the other's face, but neighbors broke up the fight. The suspect said the victim came back with a baton and beer bottle. The suspect ran home and got a golf club, the report said. She said she hit the victim with the club when the woman came toward her with a machete.

Officers couldn't find any independent witnesses to the attack and arrested Terry Rivers, 44, of Flood Street, on a charge of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature. Her bail was set at $30,000 and she remained in the Charleston County Detention Center on Thursday.

Um Terry, lay off the steroids....

And people say women only pull hair and scratch. I sure wouldn't call this one a cat fight.

Are they sure Terry isn't a guy? I can't tell.

coldbeer, you need to keep your woman under control. haha, just kidding, i just messing with you lil' feller.

would you expect anything different from this uncivilized culture. you can take the people out of the third world, but you can't take the third world out of the people.

Is the PnC sure that Terry Rivers is a SHE? She looks a lil broad shouldered and manly to me!

Must have mixed her photo with her brother's?

I wonder if her brother looks delicate...

Hmmmm...Love SC... but instead of "smiling faces, beautiful places" it should be "stupid faces, dangerous places"

We need to outlaw all batons, beer bottles, machetes, and golf clubs.

How can you people be so cruel? Of course it's a woman. The story just fails to inform you that during the fight, she was not only attacked with a baton, a beer bottle and a machete, but also an ugly stick.

It's not her fault.

she remained in the Charleston County Detention Center on Thursday

This is one time I feel sorry for the other inmates

Clue.....Terri Rivers did it, with a golf club, in the mobile home.

LOL @ shoelaces!

The next thing you know, Ms. Rivers will be logging on and telling us that she had been tiling her floor for 18 hours and that's why her mug shot looked so bad...

Leave her alone, he is just frustrated because she ran out of money right in the middle of his transexual operation.
Now, is everyone straight on this?

Thanks Priss. Good lookin' out. You bring yours to the next meeting (date, time, and place TBD) and I'll bring uncle! Lol!

And jeff, the whole set is missing. Go figure!

let me get this straight: 2 women get in a fight, neighbors break it up. The "victim" leaves & returns with a beer bottle, machete & a baton & lets the "suspect" whack her on the head with a golf club. I would suspect that alcohol was involved. Both belong in jail...for being stupid. I think we should have a special facility to house the criminally stupid. No sentence to exceed 3 days. Just enough to humble a person.

Judging by the mug shot that is still open to debate
