An Alabama woman claimed that her sister-in-law and two nieces attacked her while at a bar last week, with one using a pair of brass knuckles, according to a local report.

Lola Weaver suffered a broken nose, fractured sinus cavity, scratches to her body and needed three stitches on her face, FOX10 News in Alabama reported.

Weaver said she was with her sister-in-law Tami Byrd and her two nieces, Carissa and Ashley Byrd, at a bar in Citronelle, where she claimed one of her nieces suddenly attacked her.

"My sister-in-law’s daughter just jumped up and went to hit me for pure nothing, and I didn’t know what to think," she told the station. "I didn’t know it was her that hit me."

"She reached in and hit me with a pair of brass knuckles," Weaver said of Carissa Byrd. "After I went over in the seat, they came through the window and unlocked the door and tried dragging me out."

Citronelle Police Chief Chris McLean told the station that police don’t know the motive for the attack, saying there was "very poor decision-making that night by some family members."
