Two law enforcement officers were injured after an attack by a suspect high on crystal-methamphetamine.

It happened during a raid in Northern Holmes County, Florida.

Authorities say the raid took place at Danny Stephens' home in Bethlehem. The 35-year-old suspect reportedly attacked five officers.

Holmes County Chief Deputy Eddie Ingram received a severe eye injury and Deputy Chris Hunter sustained a head laceration which required 10 stitches.

Stephens is jailed under a $101,000 bond.

Forty-five-year-old Peggy Lee Yeomans of Geneva was also arrested and faces a number of drug related charges. Her bond is $46,000.

Several other charges may be brought against the pair as the investigation continues
