A couple's vacation to South Carolina took a dramatic turn when she kicked her husband violently, took a swipe at his face, and threw his phone at him after finding indecent photos on it.
Paula Barbour, 55, was arrested by the police and charged with third-degree domestic violence following the physical altercation on Wednesday, December 21 at Charleston International Airport.
It is reported police responded to the 'active domestic' incident at 2:50 pm and immediately broke up the fight between the couple.
'The suspect stated that she just wanted to get away from the victim and fly back home,' a police incident report obtained by WCSC stated.

Barbour told police that they had arrived in South Carolina for vacation, but she saw 'several indecent photos' in her husband's phone, which led to the argument.
The man denied being attacked by Barbour, but surveillance footage pulled by police reportedly showed her kicking her husband, throwing his cellphone and attempting to strike his face.
After getting arrested Barbour admitted to the assault, according to the police report.
She was taken to the Al Cannon Detention Center and released a day later on a $5,237 bond.
It remains unclear how she saw the photos, what they were, and where the couple had been flying from for their vacation in South Carolina.
