WASHINGTON (TND) — A homeless Florida man with no arms has been arrested for stabbing a tourist with scissors using his feet, police say.
Jonathan Dale Crenshaw, a homeless artist from South Beach, Fla., was arrested Tuesday and charged with aggravated battery after he allegedly stabbed Cesar Coronado, a visiting tourist from Chicago, according to NBC 6 Miami.
According to a witness, Coronado was asking Crenshaw for directions when the man suddenly attacked him, stabbing him in the arm before fleeing on foot.
"I'm not from here, and this is not what I came for. I came for a vacation," Coronado told NBC 6. "I just said, 'do you know where this is?' but as soon as I talked, the only thing he reacted was — he just cut me."
After being found near the scene by police, Crenshaw told officers that he was lying down when a man came up to him and punched him in the head. Crenshaw said he pulled the pair of scissors from his suitcase with his feet and stabbed the man twice to defend himself, according to officers.
"Why would I go and attack someone else? No, no, I wouldn't do that," Coronado said. "It’s like, how the hell did I get stabbed? Like, is it the right guy at that point? Because I can't believe with his legs someone could do that."
Crenshaw is now being held in jail on $7,500 bond.

Okay, these Florida men are just running out of ideas.
This guy needs to be nominated as Florida man of the year
The same story with the same mugshot was making the news cycle four years ago.
“If the perp has no arms, how did the police disarm him?”
Most cops are well prepared with throw down arms these days.

What do you call a man with no arms or legs in a pile of leaves?
True story. A friends ninety-on year old dad had an industrial accident in his forties and lost both arms at the shoulders and has lived in the same nursing home for five years. One day, a nurse heard a commotion coming from his room and ran in. A female resident was on top of him, pinning him down and working “down below.”
The nursing home had to disclose the incident with their families. The man’s family told his daughters that “she comes in my room all the time and it isn’t his fault. The woman’s family was appalled and wanted him arrested for rape and if they didn’t, they were suing the facility. My friend said to the nursing home, “since he doesn’t have any arms, our only hope is to tie up his feet.”
Don’t run with scissors, especially if you’re carrying them with your foot.
Leif?

“Industrial strength humor” has been quiet lately, thanks for giving it a kick in the arse..................

The ultimate “Florida man!”
I give him props for dexterity. I couldn’t operate scissors with my feet.
I lost a leg a few months ago but he’s inspired me to enter every butt kicking contest there is.
Kicked off a stabbing spree
I thought he stabbed him with a knife he held between his teeth. I wasn’t thinking about his feet.
