A Deerfield Beach woman accused of stabbing her cousin was arrested Saturday, according to the Broward Sheriff’s Office. Taylor Bostick, 25, faces a charge of attempted murder and was denied bond at her court appearance.
Deputies were called about a stabbing near the 100 block of Southwest First Terrace. They found a woman bleeding heavily on the roadway with a stab wound to her abdomen. She was taken to a hospital.
An arrest report said the victim’s brother told detectives he was inside an apartment complex when the two women began arguing in a parking lot. He said he tried to separate them, but Bostick swung her arm and stabbed the victim, the report said.
The victim tried to run away and collapsed outside a neighbor’s home, the report said. She lost about a liter of blood and suffered a liver laceration that could have been fatal and needed to be cauterized. She also had a scalp laceration that required five staples and a cut to her earlobe.
Detectives detained Bostick during the investigation and determined she was the suspect, the BSO said.
