A family friend, Blondy Chisolm, witnessed the fight, but told cops she was unsure who got physical first. Angie says she was defending herself after her daughter punched her in the face. She told authorities that she did not realize that she hit Diamond, and immediately backed away when she saw that she had. Stone said after she turned away, her daughter still came at her. Blondy attempted to break up the fight.
Diamond’s version of the story is somewhat different. She states that after her mother struck her with the stand, she walked away and called the police. As a result of the hit, two of Diamond’s teeth fall out.
Sources say they were rotted and in need of a root canal. Angie’s daughter tells TMZ “It don’t matter if my teeth were rotten or not … I could have gotten a root canal, but she finished the job.”
The police took them to DeKalb County Police Department headquarters for questioning. Diamond was not charged, but her mother was. Angie was recently released on a $10,000 bond.
Angie stone is a Grammy Nominated singer who is known for her songs such as “No More Rain”, “Wish I Didn’t Miss You”, and “Brotha”. She is also an actress who has been on TV shows such as “Girlfriends” and “R&B Divas”.
