Cops: Woman Stabbed Boyfriend Because He Ate All of Their Salsa
The snack-provoked crime wave continues in America: One week after a father allegedly shot his son in the butt over an empty orange juice container, a woman in Akron, Ohio, allegedly stabbed her boyfriend in the stomach because he ate all of their salsa.
The Northeast Ohio Media Group reports that, Sunday evening, Phyllis Jefferson, 50, let her boyfriend know that he was eating too much of their salsa. He apparently continued to eat the salsa, because Jefferson ended up, allegedly, stabbing him with a pen in his hip for not sharing.
Things only got worse for the 61-year-old boyfriend. Evidently still angry, Jefferson knocked over the couple's TV. When her boyfriend stood up to catch it, she allegedly grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed him in his stomach.
The boyfriend was found by police outside their apartment clutching his stomach, his hands and shirt covered in blood, and was treated at a local hospital. Jefferson fled the couple's home but was arrested on a nearby interstate. She was charged with felonious assault and one misdemeanor count of criminal damaging.
