MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. — A 12-year-old boy stabbed his sister in the arm in an argument over a chicken pot pie, authorities said.
The boy is charged as a juvenile with assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and assault with a dangerous weapon, said Robert A. Holmes, senior assistant Isabella County prosecutor.
The alleged attack took place Monday evening at the siblings' home in Mount Pleasant.
"They were having a brother-sister argument," Officer Michael G. Covarrubias told The Saginaw News for a story Wednesday. "This is going to make them sound stupid, but they were arguing over a chicken pot pie."

< Only children and children from families of 2 or 3 do not know how to share. He should have used the knife to simly cut the pie in half. A couple of drinks and you have a nice snack, together. >
Gee whiz. There were 8 of us. Share? What's that? It was survival of the fittest all the time. One of my brothers was obsessive at mealtimes about the food on his plate. He could not bear having different foods touch each other on the plate. He got so bad about it that he began eating one thing at a time...and that's all he generally got, just one thing. By the time he was ready for something else it was gone.
He grew out of it eventually either from just maturity or shear survival.
He be hongry!
Nope...This was not splits..LOL
