A 27-year-old pregnant woman was arrested this week after police say she attacked and beat her 6-year-old neighbor, nearly knocking out his two front teeth.

Tiffany Nelson, who is at the end of a full term pregnancy, was taken into police custody for assaulting Ian Fauncho; punching him in the face.

Police believe the attack came after the boy and her son got into an altercation on the school bus.
Ian’s mother, Donadeen Russell tells WSB-TV,

“What were you thinking? This was a 6-year-old child. I mean, I was there, why didn’t you hit me? I mean, you hit a 6-year-old child, you’re a coward.”

Russell says the incident happened in front of her Lithonia home after the mother drove up looking for her child.
