From KWTX:

According to the affidavit filed in support of the order, on Feb. 4, Blanchard became upset when a waiter approached the woman at a restaurant and asked whether they knew each other. Blanchard “began verbally abusing the applicant”, and followed her as she tried to leave, the affidavit says.

He grabbed her hand in an attempt to take her car keys and broke her finger, cutting the finger “to the point where she was unable to have it stitched,” the affidavit says. She was able to flag down a nearby police officer, but Blanchard fled the scene, and police weren’t able to find him.

It’s not clear from the affidavit where this incident occurred, and Waco police does not have record of the incident. In an earlier incident on Jan. 17, the affidavit says Blanchard became upset at her when she received a Snapchat message from a male friend.

It says he picked her up, and “began tossing and shoving the applicant around the apartment, slamming her into the sofa, bed, and walls several times causing soreness in her entire body,” the affidavit says.
