Her boyfriend told a Bexar County sheriff’s detective that Castaneda “became upset” after he sneezed on her as they sat inside a vehicle, the affidavit states.

While the man tried to back away to avoid an assault, Castaneda allegedly walked to the boyfriend’s father’s van and attempted to slash the tires.

The boyfriend intervened and Castaneda grabbed him by the neck with her left hand, the affidavit states. She allegedly tried to stab him with the knife in her right hand.

The man lost consciousness on the street and awoke to Castaneda on top of him. His face felt numb and he was bleeding, he told BCSO.

When he asked what happened, she allegedly replied in a laughing manner “you passed out" and called him a graphic name.
