Phyllis D. Jefferson takes food very seriously. The 50-year-old Ohio resident was arrested after stabbing her boyfriend, in the groin and stomach, for eating up her salsa.
Reports Cleveland.com:
Jefferson complained about 5:30 p.m. to her 61-year-old boyfriend that he was eating all of their salsa, police reports say.
She yelled and jammed a pen into the left side of the man’s pelvis.
She then knocked over his TV. The man jumped up and caught the TV before it hit the ground, police reports say.
While the man was catching the TV, Jefferson grabbed a small kitchen knife and stabbed the man in the left side of his stomach, according to police. Jefferson drove away, but police eventually caught up with her on Interstate 77 near U.S 224.
Akron police found the man holding his stomach outside his apartment in the 100 block of Lake Street. The man’s shirt and hands were covered in blood, according to police reports.
He was taken to Akron General Medical Center for treatment.
When police arrested Jefferson driving on the highway, she admitted to going H.A.M. on the boyfriend.
Jefferson made a court appearance today (March 30). She’s being held at the Summit County jail on felony felonious assault, and a misdemeanor count of criminal damaging.
