Police in Florida say an argument over pizza ended with a man throwing a hot slice at his roommate.
According to the Tampa Tribune, the man's roommate called police after she says Daniel Allen Plunkett, 50, tossed a hot slice of pizza at her. She says it struck her left hand. The arrest report also states the woman had sauce on her shoulder. She was not injured.
Plunkett denied throwing the pizza, telling officers it was actually his roommate who was throwing pizza. Officers did note that Plunkett was shirtless and had sauce on his chest.
After further investigation, officers arrested Plunkett on charges of simple battery and for violating his felony probation.
Assault with a delicious weapon?
We know which one is a more perfect weapon.
My wife would be a multiple felon bevause she throws stuff at me all the time but its in jest. Geez i can’rt believe they’re charging the guy with assault using pizza
Without a forensic mugshot of the slice, we'll never know
Think of children! Assault pizzas are sold everywhere thanks to the slice shop exception.
If it saves one stained shirt...
His girlfriend is ready to get rid of him. He may go back to prison over this.
Not hearsay. That would have been if the roommate had told someone else what had happened and that person filed a complaint.
This is just an example of he said, she said. In which case the default appears to be to arrest the guy.
Time to ban assault pizza’s.
Food fight!
Oh, cheez!
The cops should be charged with stupidity and the woman should be arrested for the prank call to 911.
People work themselves up over the dumbest crap whn they have too much time on their hands isn’t it? I think one ofthe biggest contributors to our current societal problems is that convenience through advanced technology has given a lot of people too much free time on their hands so they do stupid crap like throw pizzas at each other. People didn’t do these types of thing when we could actually punish our children to teach them right from wrong or had chores to do that kept them busy. No we’ve devolved into a nation of wusses who argue over things we won’t remember tomorrow and things that don’t really matter.
Facepalm-worthy headlines!
