Employee charged for stabbing co-worker with scissors at Cleveland Hopkins

Vonda Gardner of East Cleveland, a Spirit Airlines employee, was accused of stabbing her co-worker with a pair of scissors at the ticket counter at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport on Sunday night, according to Cleveland.com.

The unnamed victim, a 25-year-old man from Westlake, received a cut to the stomach as well as the hand, after trying to push the scissors away.

The victim got into an argument with Gardner over an incident where she said he was not allowed to sit down on the luggage belt, and took photos of him while he was sitting. Gardner was angered when he attempted to read an email she was sending to management over her shoulder, and turned off the monitor. When he turned it back on, Gardner acted violently.

Gardner has no other criminal history in Cleveland and posted $25,000 bond following her arraignment at Cleveland Municipal Court on Tuesday.
