WHAT A HEEL: Cheesed Meatball Assaults Fiancée Over Hoagie
Lyndel Toppin, 50, of West Philadelphia, took issue with the way his fiancée put the cheese in the meatball hoagie she was making for his dinner so he allegedly grabbed a knife and sliced her finger, causing an injury that required 23 stitches to close, reports the Philadelphia Daily News. The victim told police that he also bit down on her left wrist and clamped his teeth into her skin; there were teeth marks on her arm and she may have suffered ligament damage requiring surgery. Toppin was charged with aggravated and simple assault, reckless endangerment, possessing an instrument of crime and harassment.
