According to the Key West Police Department, the incident happened just before 5 p.m. Sunday in the 1200 block of Glynn Archer Jr. Drive, in the Stadium Mobile Home Park.

Bock’s neighbor told police that she had been getting her kids together to take her daughter to softball practice and she was in her mobile home putting a load of laundry in before they left, the report states.

It states that when the woman came out, she saw Bock screaming at her daughter and wielding a “silver-colored object,” later determined to be a wooden stick anchored by a concrete block with a sign reading “no parking” in Spanish.

Bock, police said, told them, “I am going to have someone kill you and your family.”

The girl would later tell police that “she was afraid and began crying because she did not know what to do,” the report states.

“While I was speaking to (the woman), (another officer) advised me that Daisy continued to make racial remarks, calling (the woman) and her family illegal and saying they should not be in America,” KWPD Officer Jeremiah Osborne wrote in the report.

Police said when they spoke to Bock, she told them that an “ongoing parking issue,” namely the woman “taking up a centimeter (of) her parking spot,” spurred the dispute.

Bock told police that the woman was cursing her out in front of her 3-year-old and “cause(d) a scene,” the report states.

She denied wielding any object and said the woman was lying, but police said her niece told officers that she saw her aunt holding the sign, it states.

Police arrested Bock on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Monroe County Sheriff’s Office records show Bock was released from jail Monday after posting bond.

Those records show she’s scheduled for an arraignment hearing on April 24.
