DURAND (AP) - A woman is accused of punching and kicking a pregnant teen in Pepin County in a fight over some Facebook comments.

A criminal complaint charges 21-year-old Alissa Coombs, of Arcadia, with two misdemeanor battery charges, including one to an unborn child. Prosecutors say personal comments on the social website caused the confrontation between Coombs and the 17-year-old girl. That caused Coombs, along with two others, to drive to the girl's home in a rural Durand trailer court Dec. 15 and confront her.

The complaint says Coombs and the girl argued before Coombs punched the teen, threw her to the ground and kicked her near her stomach. The Eau Claire Leader-Telegram says the two others with Coombs are also facing misdemeanor charges, including disorderly conduct and carrying a concealed weapon.
