Florida Teen Stabs Ex-Girlfriend 15 Times; Cuts His Own Throat

In a shocking incident at Mr. Chubby's Wings in Ponte Vedra, a Florida teen stands accused of brutally stabbing his ex-girlfriend, her mother, and a bystander who tried to intervene, before making a self-inflicted wound to his own throat, as reported by the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office.

The alleged perpetrator has been identified as 18-year-old Spencer Ross Pearson. During the harrowing incident, Pearson reportedly launched a fierce attack, stabbing his ex-girlfriend 15 times, then stabbing her mother and a bystander when they tried to stop him.

Tragically, the 17-year-old ex-girlfriend is currently paralyzed, WEAR News noted.

Law enforcement officials indicated that if Pearson survives his self-inflicted throat injury, he will face a series of charges, including two counts of first-degree attempted premeditated murder and aggravated battery.

Florida Stabbing Incident

During a lunch outing at a local restaurant, a distressing incident unfolded involving Madison Schemitz, a prominent high school softball player, her mother, Jacki Rogé, and a friend, per Independent.

The Florida teen identified as Spencer Pearson, who happened to be Schemitz's former boyfriend, was in the vicinity, triggering immediate concern.

The group had valid reasons to be apprehensive about Pearson's presence. Following their breakup, he repeatedly threatened Schemitz, escalating to a point where her mother sought a restraining order against him.

Upon settling their bill and preparing to depart, the group proceeded toward their car.

However, Pearson entered the restaurant, and the group seemingly attempted to evade him. Regrettably, Pearson intercepted them before they could reach their vehicle and stands accused of launching an attack on both Schemitz and her mother.

The terrifying assault continued until a passerby, 23-year-old Kennedy Armstrong, heard the commotion and courageously intervened. Tragically, Pearson turned his aggression towards Armstrong, inflicting a stab wound to his arm that caused severe damage to multiple tendons.

As the confrontation unfolded, Pearson, in a desperate act, reportedly attempted to harm himself by stabbing his own throat.

High School Softball Star Left Paralyzed After Florida Stabbing

Madison Schemitz, the star athlete involved in the Florida stabbing incident, is currently paralyzed, according to her sister, Tatiana Cruceta. Despite this devastating outcome, the family remains hopeful that she will regain her mobility and return to the softball field, according to PEOPLE.

Cruceta expressed her unwavering faith in Madison's resilience, stating, "Madison is a fighter. She will make it through this, and I know she will leave this hospital." She also revealed that Madison had undergone multiple surgeries as part of her medical treatment.

Describing Madison's character, Cruceta emphasized her sister's cheerful disposition, saying, "Madison's the sweetest person you'll ever meet. She's always smiling, always."

She shared an uplifting moment from their conversation, recalling how Madison, known affectionately as "Sass" among loved ones, responded with humor when asked about her well-being. Cruceta said, "So as soon as I answered the phone... I said, 'How you doin', Sass? How are you feeling?' And she goes, 'Oh, just dandy.' So, she was cracking jokes and trying to be strong."

Authorities have revealed that Madison and the suspect had a prior romantic relationship. However, following their breakup in April, he allegedly embarked on a disturbing course of action, engaging in stalking and harassment directed toward Madison.

According to Tatiana Cruceta, Madison's sister, there were concerning incidents that took place after the couple's separation, with the suspect reportedly making threats against Madison's safety. Cruceta confirmed that her mother had been actively seeking a restraining order against him, indicating a clear, deliberate intent on the suspect's part.
