Cantonment Woman Held Knife To Man’s Throat, Threatened To Kill Him, ECSO Says
March 25, 2021
A Cantonment woman is facing charges after allegedly threatening to slice a man’s throat.
Margaret Carrie Evans, 54, was charged with aggravated assault, battery, and kidnapping/false imprisonment. She remained in the Escambia County Jail without bond Thursday morning.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to an armed disturbance at a mobile home in the area of Muscogee Road and McQueen Street about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday — their third response to the home within a matter of hours. The victim told deputies that he was sleeping on the couch when Evans woke him up, grabbed him, and pulled his head back and held a kitchen knife to his throat. She accused him of being a liar and stated, “I should kill your [expletive] now,” according to an arrest report.
She then went to the front door, locked it and blocked him from leaving, the report continues. The victim fled to his bedroom, with Evans barricading the bedroom door with several objects. The victim called 911 and maintained communications with the dispatcher until deputies arrived on scene.
Evans had fled the scene, prompting a search with an ECSO K-9. She was found hiding in the woods west of the trailer and was arrested without incident.
The victim was not physically injured, but deputies noted in their report that appeared fearful and his hands were visibly shaking.
A redacted arrest report did not specify the relationship between Evans and the victim.

I bet next time he’s around her he will sleep with one eye open
It states this was the 3rd response to the house within hours? If domestic disturbance, usually one party has to leave. Just wondering?
Rocky. The relationship could be described as “rocky.”
This was a matter of time before it got this bad. I use to be a neighbor of them(and the bunch next door) Police were always over at both houses. One family lives in pure filth and sin and this family dwelling was always in turmoil. The residents (even back then) was trying to get them all removed due to the constant ongoings. Good job ESCO in getting one part of the problem removed. Now they need to do a clean sweep and clean that area up once and for all…pure trash on the land and community.
Hey woman, you got the blues
‘Cause you ain’t got no one else to use
There’s an open road that leads nowhere
So just make some miles between here and there
