Deputies from the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office responded Thursday to Wade’s home in Spencer, northeast of Oklahoma City, after reports of a stabbing.
Investigators believe McNeal’s 10-year-old daughter had been involved in a fight with Wade’s 17-year-old daughter, who is actually her niece.
McNeal allegedly intervened and got both girls back to their homes, but Wade’s daughter then called for help and got her mother back home.

Wade tried to reenter her house, but collapsed in the driveway.
