I just read a very interesting article online.
Apparently, some woman was arrested for domestic violence
against her boyfriend. She stabbed the
guy in the hand, and get this: she “immobilized him” by throwing his prosthetic
leg out the window.
There are two sides to this story: one told by the
boyfriend, and one told by the woman, whose name is Michelle Thomas. Michelle’s story is the following.
Michelle was sitting in her house when her boyfriend, who
lives with her, came in drunk. Michelle
then threw a box of cigarettes at him for reasons that were not reported, and
in response the boyfriend started beating her with his fists.
Michelle then took out a knife, and stabbed her boyfriend in
the hand out of self-defense. But the
boyfriend kept hitting her; apparently he was still mad about getting a pack of
cigarettes thrown at him. So Michelle
removed the boyfriend’s prosthetic leg and threw it, along with a spare
prosthetic leg, out of a window, immobilizing her assaulter.
The boyfriend, whose name was not divulged, had a slightly
different story. According to him, he
was minding his own business when Michelle came up to him and started
assaulting him with a knife and threw his leg out the window.
Which story is more believable? Honestly, I think they’re both crazy, but I
like to believe Michelle’s story. It’s
just awesome to think that someone could stop an attacker by unclamping his
fake leg from the rest of his body and just chucking it out the window.
The outcome of the court case was that the boyfriend gets no
charges whatsoever, and Michelle was arrested and charged with criminal
domestic violence.
This article just goes to show that you shouldn’t go
throwing packs of cigarettes at drunken people.
Also, Michelle Thomas is now my hero.
