From the probable cause statement:
On February 18th 2026 at 1623 hours, Officers were dispatched to the 500 Blk of S Roane in the City of Webb City, County of Jasper, State of Missouri, in reference to a 91 1 hangup. When I, Officer Fultz, arrived on scene V1 was laying on his back in the door way screaming for help and that he had been cut.While tending to Victim 1's injuries, V1 stated that a female, later identified as Pearl Barlow had cut him with a hatchet. I placed a tourniquet on V1's left leg due to the amount of blood he was losing.
Later on, it was determined that V1 had 3 deep lacerations and 1 superficial. The deep lacerations were
on the inside of VI's right knee, on the outside of his left knee, and on the back of his left Achillies.
The superficial wound was on V1's right pinky toe.
Pearl was located hiding in a shop to the East of the property. During the investigation of the scene,
blood was located on the kitchen floor with a trail of blood leading to the front door where V1 was
located.

While interviewing other occupants of the home. W1 stated she heard banging, yelling and screaming when Pearl ran into her bedroom and said "I f---ed up, call 911." W2 had a similar story, he stated he heard the same banging, yelling and screaming when Pearl entered the room and said "He's bleeding out call 911." A hatchet was located in the living room.
On February 19th 2026 at 1313 hours, I met with Pearl at the Hospital. I introduced myself and asked
Pearl to explain the events that transpired the night before. Pearl stated VI and her got into an argument that escalated when V1 punched her in the forehead. Pearl tried to calm V1 down, but V1 continued and eventually put Pearl into a "triangle" choke hold. Pearl was able to break free of the choke hold and ran down the hallway to her bedroom where she retrieved a hatchet. Pearl returned to the living room and told V1 to calm down.

VI noticed the hatchet and V1 and Pearl began fighting over it. Pearl didn't know what happened on the ground, but somehow, she won the fight over the hatchet and hit V1 with it. Pearl was unsure how many times she hit V1 but stated she hit him multiple times.
Pearl panicked and ran to the room of W1 and W2 to have them call 911. She returned to V1, who had
crawled into the kitchen, and put blankets and towels on V1's legs to try to stop the bleeding. While
attempting to stop the bleeding, VI crawled from the kitchen to the front door where I located him.
Pearl stated V1 looked at her and said "I don't know who you are, but they're here you need to run."
Pearl then ran out the back door and hid in the shed.
Cpl. Putnam asked Ms. Barlow if he could check her pockets before the ambulance arrived and she
stated that was okay. While searching her pockets, He located a baggie with a crystal like rock in her
front right coin pocket. The rock later tested positive for methamphetamine and fentanyl and weighted
approximately 2.6 grams.
Ms. Barlow and V1 were in a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship and living together at the time of the
incident.
