Posted

A woman drinking with a friend at a yard sale ended up in jail Saturday night.

Deputies say Shelly Serra smashed a glass jar or vase over her neighbor's head.

Neighbors told deputies that Serra and a neighbor were having a joint garage sale and were drinking heavily, when they started physically fighting, according to the Mesa County Sheriff's Office.

Serra, 54, was arrested on suspicion of second degree assault with injury, using a deadly weapon and criminal mischief.

The neighbor was taken to the hospital with a head injury.
