Mary J. Blige's father is in critical condition after being stabbed
during a domestic dispute with a former girlfriend. Thomas Blige, 63,
was stabbed three times, including once to the neck, on Thursday morning
after the altercation at his home at the Arbors of Battle Creek
apartment complex in Michigan.
According to the Battle Creek Enquirer, police were called to the scene
at 6.58am where they found the victim along with the knife used in the
attack in his apartment.
Tragedy: Mary J. Blige's father Thomas is in critical condition after being stabbed three times, reportedly by a former girlfriend. His 50-year-old former girlfriend was apprehended by officers in her own home in the same complex and was wearing 'blood-splattered clothing' when found.
Blige was taken to Bronson Methodist Hospital in Kalamazoo, Michigan to undergo surgery and remained in a critical condition on Thursday evening.
Detective Sgt. Jim Martens told the Battle Creek Enquirer that the incident occurred when Blige saw his ex letting the air out of his tires.
He reportedly confronted her and the stabbing occurred before each returned to their own apartments.
The detective revealed officers found blood in the snow outside before discovering the victim and attacker each in their own homes.
The woman was treated for a cut, reportedly charged with 'assault with intent to murder' and is expected to be arraigned on Friday in Calhoun County District Court.
Detective Martens added that there have been seven domestic violence complaints between the warring former lovers since August.
On January 10, the Battle Creek Enquirer reports, she was placed on six months probation and ordered to 'have non-assaultive contact with Blige'.
Mary, 43, has not yet commented on the incident.
