McNeil reportedly sent a text message to her friend asking the woman to contact the police on her behalf to help deal with a situation between herself and Tetreault. The friend told police that McNeil has had a volatile history with her boyfriend, Tetreault.

    According to reports, two police officers arrived on the scene and spoke with the victim. McNeil alleged that Tetreault choked her and that he had thrown her cat up against a wall. She then said he grabbed the cat by the tail and threw it 15 feet down a hallway.
