Woman arrested for throwing frying pan at man’s head
Staff report
ALACHUA COUNTY, Fla. – Destiny Imani Mayes, 23, was arrested yesterday and charged with battery, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after allegedly throwing a glass bottle at her boyfriend, missing him but breaking a window, and then throwing a frying pan that hit him in the head.
At about 10:25 a.m., an Alachua County Sheriff’s Deputy responded to the home shared by Mayes and the victim, where the victim reportedly said he had asked Mayes to leave the residence and that led to an argument. He said Mayes picked up an empty liquor bottle and threw it at him, breaking a window in their apartment.
The victim said he left the apartment at that point, and Mayes also went outside. Mayes allegedly picked up a small frying pan and threw it at the victim, hitting him in the head.
Mayes allegedly continued to follow the victim, hitting and scratching him.
Post Miranda, Mayes reportedly admitted to throwing the bottle and breaking the window. She also reportedly admitted to throwing the pan and hitting the victim in the head; she said the pan was small. She reportedly admitted to pulling the victim’s shirt off while fighting with him and said she “snapped.”
Mayes has no local adult criminal convictions but has a pending misdemeanor case for driving without a valid license. Judge Gloria Walker ordered her held without bail.

Frying pan violence summit needed. A least it was a small and hopefully non-stick.
This was a fully semi-automatic frying pan capable of frying up to 3 eggs at a time. Combine this with the high-capacity egg cartons (12 eggs or more) readily available at every grocery store, and you’ve got a cholesterol crisis on your hands.
Just a small ‘caliber’ frying pan preceded by an empty liqueur bottle. I suspect she should get another boyfriend.
I was thinking he should get another girlfriend.
Held without bail?? Why? Our court system also rule that a mom who went after an adult man who had sex with her 14 year old daughter couldn’t have bail.
Dang, they let all kinds of people out on bail– why not these two??
Kathleen, I know! The nose ring is also called a slave ring….I don’t know why the jail staff don’t make them remove them with the mugshot and give them back once they are released. She can use that
Nose ring to cut someone’s jugular vain! She already used a booze bottle and a small frying pan as a weapon…glad she got the tatoos on her neck so she can be ID’d EZ!
Thanks Kathleen. These people should be released to get back to work. Maybe potential Ambassadors??
Was the address a Section 8 address? Taxpayers deserve to know if we are paying for degenerate cohabitations and crime breeding, as planned by our SCUMMY lawyer-landlords and judges.
