TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Flagler County deputies arrested a man Thursday who they said allegedly tried to choke one of his relatives during a fight over a toaster oven.

The argument eventually escalated into a full-blown fight with Buckley knocking the victim over, punching him,biting him on the neck, and then wrapping his arm around the family member’s throat to choke him, according to deputies.

A female relative saw the fight and tried to get Buckley to stop by yelling at him and trying to pull him off.

Fearing for the victim’s life, the woman took a knife and stabbed Buckley in the back to get him to stop, according to the sheriff’s office.

Deputies said the victim was also stabbed in the shoulder with the same knife but was expected to recover.

Arrested “a man”

A “female relative”

Ya know, my guess is, it wasn’t JUST about a toaster oven...

[dsrtsage]

Well, what do you know, not a teen. That did seem like a very white trashy crime, but they fooled me with the deliberately vague descriptions

Is it the heat? the water? the sand?

Have long planned on a FLA final getaway, after many long test runs over many years, been thinking lately maybe another direction.

This is what happens when the Brave Little Toaster goes to Mars.

Starts out with Pop Tart treats and then the demands begin to escalate.

I'm just going to throw this out there — all those involved probably test positive for drugs and alcohol.

And the same genes.

"Ya know, my guess is, it wasn’t JUST about a toaster oven..."

I'm not so sure. Some people are hopelessly addcted to drama. The Amish, for example...

#10: "And the same genes."

Yep. Family tree looks like a telephone pole.

A toaster oven or...?

[Boogieman]

My guess is someone didn’t clean the tray and left all that caked in grease on it.

I’m starting to feel that same way about my toaster oven. Mr K (not the one on this forum) didn’t want to get a toaster oven when the old toaster (from the 1940s) died. I talked him into it, however, and now we are toasting the daylights out of everything and it’s just great. Frozen egg rolls! Frozen fish! Frozen pot pies! All coming out done to a freaking turn, better than in the regular oven and uses less electricity.

If you lay ONE FINGER on my TOASTER OVEN, I WILL CUT YOU.

Fetal alcohol syndrome?

[Texas resident]

My toaster oven identifies as a freezer. It is impossible to deal with because it is so cold to me.

Where is the obligatory “alcohol may have been involved?”

[RatRipper]

Where is the obligatory “alcohol may have been involved?”

. . . alcohol may have been involved . . . both when the assailant was conceived, and many, many times thereafter. . . .

The kitchen is not a good place to start throwing down.
