Any story involving the words “coeds” and “catfight” has alot of promise.  You throw in the phrase “used a box cutter to injure the three women” and you have my full attention, especially when an Ole Miss basketball player is somehow involved .  We’ll let the Daily Mississippian explain all the staberific details…

Three Ole Miss students were sent to Baptist Memorial Hospital Wednesday after university police officers responded to an altercation between at least six Ole Miss students in the Circle at approximately 11:30 a.m.

Ole Miss freshman Marisha M. Porter was arrested for aggravated assault, according to the docket at the Lafayette County Detention Center. She was released on bond at approximately 3 p.m. Wednesday.

And more…including video of the incident after the jump…

After UPD broke up the fight, the scene at the Circle was still relatively hectic. Girls were yelling back and forth at each other, saying, “it’s not over yet,” while police gathered statements and evidence. One girl screamed about her “keyed” car. The concrete flower bed surrounding the flagpole in the Circle was splattered with blood.

 

To calm the scene down, UPD Assistant Chief Ray Hawkins moved the girls to the police station in Kinard Hall. As the girls were being escorted from the Circle, one threw a shoe at another.

Honestly, who throws a shoe?  Oh and…

The university news release also said investigators suspect the incident “stems from an ongoing personal dispute among the women,” and that “university police have questioned several of those involved, including a male student allegedly involved with two of the women.”

 

An Ole Miss basketball player is rumored to be the male student questioned by police. Head Basketball Coach Andy Kennedy told The DM in an e-mail Wednesday night that team staff were aware of the altercation and were investigating the player’s involvement.

Our personal most favortiest part of the story is the recounting of a message left on the Boxcutter Assasin’s Facebook page…

“REE REE I shuDa KNwn u WAS goNE reTAiLIate TuFF… U mY moTha****In GURl!!! I Swear ON my MAMA if I WUda BEEN thUR I WUda HAD YO bacK TO tha FUll…hOES haTE ANd wanNA rUn Up SENd THEy biTCH ass TO Tha ER!!!!” (sic.)

The English Department at Ole Miss is thrilled Im sure.
