HPD patrol officers responded to a stabbing call at the apartment complex at the above address and learned two women got into an argument.  Jackson and one of the women began to fight and, at some point, Jackson pulled a knife or other sharp object and stabbed the woman.  After the fight stopped, Jackson then attacked the second woman and stabbed her.  Houston Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and transported the victims to area hospitals.  

After consulting with the Harris County District Attorney's Office, Jackson was subsequently charged for her role in the stabbings.  She was taken into custody and transported to the Harris County Joint Processing Center.
