A woman who made national headlines after being hit in the head by a flying bat at Fenway Park in June faces a new battle - one in court to keep custody of her child.
Court documents obtained by WFXT show that her ex-husband is asking for custody and child support from Tonya Carpenter.
Carpenter was recently released from rehab.
The documents claims Carpenter "suffered a traumatic brain injury, is actively rehabilitating, is on numerous medications, is not able to drive due to her condition and requires 24/7 supervision," WFXT reported.
The station tried to speak with her former husband George Carpenter at his home, but he would not answer the door.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help with Tonya's medical bills, some of her friends believe that's the reason for the custody filing.
A person, identified only as a friend to Tonya told WFXT, "I really think it's a ploy on his behalf to try to get some of that money that was donated to Tonya. I know Tonya's very hurt by this, very much."
