Dispatch received two calls from the woman who lived in the apartment and a neighbor around 3:40 p.m.
The resident and Mansfield got into a physical altercation when Mansfield left and retrieved a 9mm handgun from her vehicle, a 2010 GMC Terrain, according to an affidavit.
Mansfield reportedly was banging on windows with the gun, police said.
“While holding the handgun, Brendia grabbed a concrete block and threw it through (the woman’s) front apartment window. Brendia then fled the scene but was arrested a short time later still in possession of the firearm,” the affidavit stated.

An undercover officer spotted Mansfield’s GMC headed north on Wilmington Pike. Marked cruisers used a maneuver to get the vehicle stopped near Smithville and Patterson roads, police said.
A family member was called for the child, and a gun was found inside the vehicle, police said.
Mansfield has been served with two protection orders in unrelated cases and is not permitted to own a firearm.
She was arraigned Thursday on felony charges of improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle and vandalism. She is held on $10,000 bail in the Montgomery County Jail.
