Fight over last rib at barbecue results in victim being stabbed with fork

One woman was hospitalized and another arrested after a fight over the last rib at a backyard barbecue turned violent.

The fight broke out on North Turner Street in Muncie on Sunday night. Officers got a call about a stabbing around 7 p.m., in the midst of a large family barbecue.

According to a police report obtained by the Muncie Star Press, a woman told police she had been stabbed in the eye with a fork by Sabrina Davis, a family friend.

“She was upset that Davis was taking the last rib from the kitchen,” an officer said in the report. “(She) then confronted Davis about taking all the food.”

During the confrontation, the victim said Davis was using a fork to take meat from a pan when she turned and used the fork to stab her in the eye.

That victim was taken to the hospital for lacerations and a swollen eye and later released.

Davis told officers she was acting in self-defense, after the victim pulled out a knife during the argument.

“Davis states she stabbed (the victim) in the eye so she wouldn’t stab her with the knife,” the officer said.

The story quickly became the talk of the town, as it hit the front page of the paper Wednesday. One neighbor told FOX59 she went to buy a newspaper so she could see it herself.

“I usually get the paper to read it but today was special, so I thought I’d go out and buy one,” that neighbor said.

A woman at the house where the fight happened called it embarrassing. Neighbors agreed the entire ordeal was unfortunate and went too far.

“It was just so ridiculous. … Barbecue’s good and all that, but it’s not worth sticking somebody in the eye with a fork, you know?” a neighbor said.

I wouldn’t get between her and a plate of ribs without a .470 Nitro Express, and maybe not then.

I guess I’m a racist to think “Holder’s people” without even scrolling down.

This happened in the same town where a woman in 1996 was suffering from a callus on one of her feet. She drank a few beers, along with a half gallon of vodka, then she used a shotgun to remove the sore. The only problem is she is missing a foot now.

After reading the title, I guessed it was a Black female.

There was a story once told by the late country comedian Jerry Clower about this same type of incident.

Seems that everyone at the dinner table wanted the last piece of chicken on the dinner platter when suddenly the lights went out.
A scream was heard and the lights came back on and the head of the family had several forks embedded in his hand.......................

along with a half gallon of vodka,

A half gallon? That's 25.6 ounces of alcohol. She should be dead and embalmed by that much!

Those ribs must have been pretty damn good (like mine) to stab someone in the eye. Looks like the perp ate a lot of them and often. Just female street rat shouting, “Das mine, gibsmmedat”.

Well, maybe it WAS that good!

Never bring a knife to a fork fight......................
