A drunken argument over whether Android or Apple smartphones were superior turned violent early today when two Oklahoma roommates began assaulting each other during the bloody telecommunications debate.
According to Tulsa police, Jiaro Mendez and Elias Acevedo were outside their apartment around 1 AM when their phone quarrel moved to the stabbing stage.
As they tussled in a parking lot, Acevedo allegedly struck Mendez in the back of the head with a beer bottle. When cops subsequently apprehended Acevedo, he was “covered in blood” and “also had several lacerations on his body from the fight.”
Both men were treated for cuts and bruises at a local hospital, where Mendez told police that the pair had been “arguing about which phone was better, the iPhone or the Android.”
Acevedo, pictured above, was booked into the county jail for felony assault with a deadly weapon. Acevedo, 21, is being held without bond, while an Immigration and Customs Enforcement hold has also been placed on him, according to jail records.
Investigators did not disclose which of the men was the Apple fanboy or the Android devotee.

Well, Swordmaker, I thought this was hilarious this morning when I saw it on the Tulsa morning news. I don’t know if the other Apple users on the list will think so. Whatever you think ... :-) ...

I can see hipsters duking it out (or slap-fighting) over this.

I’m not surprised. I know people who seem so personally identified with Apple and its products that they take personal offense at anything that slights Apple, even jokingly.

Good thing it wasn’t over whether Miller Lite “Tastes Great” or is “Less Filling.”
