A Cannon County woman was arrested recently for domestic assault after her granddaughter stated that she got beat and was scared for her safety and well being. According to Cannon County Sheriff’s Department reports, Deputy Greg Fauls was called to meet with John Sneed in regards to the possible domestic. Mr. Sneed told officers that he received a call from the child stating she was beat by her grandmother and she was scared for her safety and well being. Deputies went to talk to the grandmother later identified as Katy Davis. Davis stated that here was some yelling at the end of the driveway when her granddaughter got off the school bus. The yelling was because she was late coming home and that she was supposed to come home with her boyfriend but the granddaughter stated that her boyfriend couldn’t give her a ride home so she rode the bus. Ms Davis admitted to smacking her granddaughter in the mouth and then stated that she was disciplining her, hitting her with a cane until Mr.Davis saw this and told her to use a belt instead. After interviewing the granddaughter, it was determined that she was hit with a cane several times. Ms. Davis was taken into custody and arrested for Domestic Assault.
