DALLAS - A man used a frozen armadillo to attack a 57-year old Pleasant Grove woman, Dallas police said.

The incident happened on Sept. 29 in an apartment complex parking lot.

According to investigators, the altercation occurred when the suspect was selling the carcass to the victim, who planned to eat the animal.

The pair apparently began arguing over the price of the item when the man twice threw the armadillo at the woman.

The animal first struck the woman in the leg and then in her chest.

She was reportedly bruised by the attack.

Detectives have been unable to find the man, who could face assault charges.

Obviously, we need Frozen Armadillo control or an outright ban.

beaten with frozen Armadillo ping.

However, to be a proper Texas Armadillo it should have been tango union on the side of the road clutching a Lone Star Beer bottle.

More restrictions on frozen armadillos would have prevented this act of frozen armadillo violence...

Good thing this didn’t happen in NYC because Bloomberg would jump at this opportunity to tighten up those armadillo control laws.

The woman is an idiot. Someone needs to tell her roadkill is free, a bit damaged, but free. Dummy doesn’t know how to comparison shop.

You’ll only pry my armadillo from my cold dead fingers!

How often have I wanted to end an argument with women the same way.

I was in Cimarron country, western Oklahoma last week and saw several armadillos resting by the side of the road. On their backs.

It’s obvious that the armadillo would not been as significant of a thread had it not been frozen.

We obviously need a Freezer Czar.

Armadillos carry disease. I would hesitate to eat one unless I’d raised it myself from a pup (?) in sanitary conditions.

The man obtained the animal under the Justice Department's undercover operation known as “Operation Armadillo Walker.”The intent was to discreetly put roadkill into the hands of persons who would then attempt to use the frozen carcass in the commission of a crime. Unfortunately, the dead animals were not equipped with a tracking device, resulting in agents left without the ability to properly track the roadkill.

IF THEY MAKE FROZEN ARMADILLOS ILLEGAL, THEN ONLY ILLEGALS WILL HAVE FROZEN ARMADILLOS.
