A Chattooga County woman was arrested after neighbors witnessed an assault, according to a report released this week by the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office. Brooke Machelle England, 31, of Summerville, was arrested and charged with Simple Battery on June 11, 2025, following a domestic dispute at a residence on Stenitt Road. According to the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office report, deputies were dispatched to 637 Stenitt Road at approximately 10:31 PM in response to a report of a verbal and physical altercation between England and Larry King. Upon arrival, deputies heard a female yelling and a male attempting to calm her down. Observing England stumble and fall backwards, deputies initially believed a physical altercation was in progress. However, they determined that England had fallen on her own. England reportedly told deputies that she and King had been at the hospital with her daughter and that she had consumed alcohol. She stated that they were arguing but that no physical violence had occurred. However, witnesses at the scene provided conflicting accounts. One witness, a resident of the home, stated that England had struck King multiple times prior to the deputies’ arrival. Another witness corroborated this account, adding that England was responsible for a cracked front window on a vehicle at the residence. King confirmed that he and England had been arguing because he had removed the car battery to prevent her from driving under the influence. Based on witness testimony and the damage to the vehicle, deputies arrested England for Simple Battery. She was transported to the Chattooga County Jail without incident.
