humor in the daily news

today i was checking foxnews.com [that is where i get my news from] and i came across this story that i found to be wacky, funny, & a little sad all at the same time. now, the situation itself isn't entirely funny [although the context of it did make me smirk] but the last sentence in the article made me laugh hysterically.

here is the article i read:
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — A man faces a domestic battery charge after allegedly hitting his girlfriend with a sandwich as she was driving.

Police said the 19-year-old man became angry and hit the woman in the arm and face with a sandwich, knocking her glasses off, as she was driving along Interstate 95 on Friday.

The victim nearly lost control of the car because she couldn't see the road. Her boyfriend then allegedly ripped off the rear-view mirror and used it to shatter the windshield.

He was arrested, jailed and later freed on $7,500 bail.

Police haven't said what type of sandwich was involved.

...you have to admit that makes you smile.

LOL! I bet it was a footlong from Subway. It had to be long enough to reach across the front and be able to hit her and hearty enough to knock her glasses off. The funniest thing to me is if you were driving down the highway and SAW someone being assaulted with a sandwich. How do you hit someone with a sandwich and would it hurt? I have questions about this! I wonder if the police would have responded even faster if he hit her with a donut?! :)

those are all valid points! i couldn't imagine witnessing something of this nature because i think that it would take me a minute to even process the fact that someone was being beaten with a SANDWICH!

I bet it was a plain old PB&J sandwhich. That could be a deadly weapon if you were allergic to peanuts!! Plus, they sound kinda trashy could they afford subway?! I mean in that case put me in jail I have thrown fries at Andy out of anger.... lol
