Teen girl held in attempted murder of CA mother

HESPERIA, Calif. (AP) - May 23, 2012

A police spokeswoman in the high desert city of Hesperia says officers were called by the victim after her daughter and two 14-year-old friends attacked her Tuesday morning.

The Victorville Daily Press reports the three were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder and burglary.

Spokeswoman Susan Rose tells The Associated Press that the teen complained her mother was too strict with curfew and too critical of her friends.

Rose says there were three attempts on the woman's life, but she did not seek medical attention.

The victim initially reported her daughter kidnapped, but investigators determined it was part of a conspiracy among the teens.
