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.

Well, he’s obviously handy with a knife, I’ll give him that.
Oh... Wait.
Is he related to Eye-Patch McCain?
“Ok, we’ll call it a draw!”
What do you call a man with no arms or legs in a pile of leaves after he dies?
Did they handcuff his feet?
********
Ball and chains......
Naw..... he was using an army knife.
I thought it was the same guy, just a repeat offender.
The really weird stories tend to get recycled here.
I used to go to school with a girl who lost her arms in wringer washer. What she could do with her feet was astounding.
Not a very handy guy to have around.
With the right punchline, that could be a great joke.
About eight of us ladies got together about once a month for some wine etc. So Carol , the man’s daughter and our friend was distraught. After some prodding and several glasses of wine, she told us why she was upset, related the events, which was her sweet armless father was being accused of rape, in a nursing home. Honest to heavens, we all tried to be compassionate “ah Carol, we are so sorry” and then looked at each other, trying to hold back and went into hysterical rib splitting laughter. It was a night to remember.
