Deputies said the boyfriend told them he returned to the home he shares with Banos to get some of his belongings  when she started verbally assaulting him and grabbed a 7-inch kitchen style knife. According to the report, Banos walked outside and punctured all four tires on her boyfriend's car, flattening the tires.
