TPD investigating stabbing: Woman seriously injured, another charged with attempted murder

A woman was hospitalized with serious injuries following a stabbing inside a home in northeast Tallahassee Friday morning, according to the Tallahassee Police Department.

The incident occurred just after 8:30 a.m. at a house in the 1600 block of Club Harbor Drive.

Brigette Ffolkes, 57, has been charged with premediated attempted murder. She had earlier been detained for questioning in connection with the case, said TPD spokesperson Heather Merritt.

She was booked in the Leon County Detention Facility without bail.

Ffolkes and the injured woman knew each other, Merritt added, but she could not go into further detail about their relationship as this is an open and active investigation.

According to court records, Ffolkes have previously been arrested in Leon County on multiple non-violent charges like trespassing and violation of parole.
