Last week, a man living in an apartment in Treasure Island's storied Sunset Beach neighborhood was arrested after an altercation that culminated in him allegedly assaulting his roommate with a piece of pizza.
According to an arrest affidavit first published over at thesmokinggun.com, Daniel Plunkett, 50, was arrested after his roommate, Brenda Fiejdasz, 56, told police Plunkett had assaulted her with a hot slice of pizza.
Supposedly, the argument the two were having was about the very object that ultimately became the weapon, pizza. Police reported that the pizza was hot, but not hot enough to burn the victim.
Plunkett denied throwing the pizza, telling police it was actually Fiejdasz who did the pizza-tossing.
Fiejdaz reportedly had pizza on her shoulder when cops arrived, but had cleaned up some of the evidence.
Plunkett, meanwhile, was shirtless and covered in marinara sauce.
Police charged Plunkett, who is on felony probation for unrelated offense (DUI and driving with a suspended license), with simple battery and violation of probation. He's being held without bond on the latter and is awaiting trial.
CL caught wind of the incident via the Florida Man Twitter feed.
