A Florida woman has been arrested following an alleged attempt to stab her estranged adult daughter, as reported by local law enforcement agencies.

Serpil Nebiye Adams, 62, faces charges of second-degree attempted murder without premeditation, according to the authorities.

The incident reportedly took place on Monday afternoon at a home on Reese Avenue in the Oakleaf area of Orange Park, which is approximately 20 miles south of Jacksonville.

Around 3:15 p.m., the victim made a 911 call, as documented in the charging papers obtained by Law&Crime.

“The caller, who was later identified as the victim, was heard shouting for someone to leave her residence,” stated a press release from the Clay County Sheriff’s Office.

Upon arrival, deputies noticed blood on the sidewalk, as detailed in a heavily redacted affidavit for an arrest warrant.

Then, deputies conferred with the victim at length.

Deputies soon learned the victim “had a physical altercation with her estranged biological mother,” according to the sheriff’s office. Adams had allegedly shown up at her daughter’s home “uninvited.”

“During the investigation, it was determined the victim was home with her two young children when Adams came into the home through an unlocked door and attacked the victim with a serrated utility knife,” the sheriff’s office said.

The attack, however, was frustrated by an unlikely hero.

“While attempting to protect her mother, the victim’s 8-year-old daughter retrieved a kitchen knife and stabbed Adams in the upper arm,” the sheriff’s office said.

There was also a telltale bit of crimson at the scene, authorities say.

“The storm drain was also in the direct path of the blood drops leading from the residence to the suspect’s vehicle,” the affidavit reads.

As the investigation progressed and the alleged assailant was known, deputies provided a driver’s license photograph of the defendant to the victim who “positively identified” her own mother, according to the affidavit.

Next, authorities determined the vehicle believed to have been driven by Adams actually belonged to another woman, the affidavit says. Investigators then made contact with the owner of the car.

Soon enough, investigators arrived at a residence in Jacksonville where Adams had been staying with her friend, deputies say.

“The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office located Adams inside the friend’s residence, and she was taken into custody without incident,” according to the press release.

Then, Adams invoked her Miranda rights during a custodial interview and requested a lawyer — which led to the interview being terminated, according to an arrest form obtained by Law&Crime.

Neither the victim nor her children were harmed during the foiled knife attack, according to the sheriff’s office.

The defendant is currently being detained in the Clay County Jail on just over $500,000 bond, records show.

On Tuesday, Adams appeared in court for a hearing — resulting in a no-contact order in the event she is able to post the bond she was granted. The defendant is next slated to appear in court on Dec. 16.
