A Florida woman was arrested for allegedly threatening to drown a child on Saturday afternoon, authorities said.
Key Largo resident Ashley Marcella Brooks, 32, was charged with felony counts of making written/electronic threats of bodily harm and child neglect.
The Miami Herald reported that the charges were related to an argument that Brooks had with her boyfriend at around 3:40 p.m. Saturday.
Brooks allegedly sent her boyfriend a text threatening to drown a 9-month-old child, authorities believe. It has not been confirmed if Brooks is the mother of the child.

Brooks was arrested and taken to jail, where her bond was set at $75,000. The suspect's arraignment is scheduled for August 1.
